Mark is texting for now...

Mark's email server crashed, so he is texting and phoning for now...and he just sent this in...

Met with the renal physician - reports on kidneys are very good - back to normal. While here, Dr. Nechman called the radiologist and got the CT scan results - good - there is no abscess around his bad tooth - very swollen lymph nodes though.

Nechman also verified our concerns about the antibiotics - they are using 3 but he confirmed that they have gone to a broad spectrum antibiotic to fight the strep and the pneumonia. We will investigate further tomorrow.

from the past day's reports: WBC is normal now, as are plateletes, and though Steven has had to have his left lung drained twice, his pneumonia is not the dangerous dry type. He is still being kept heavily sedated.

Thank you for your continued prayers...

Pilar
