Trip to the ER take 2...

Last night we ventured into the ER and let me tell you I think I am more educated than some of the doctors they have working there. After sitting in a room for almost an hour and a half someone decided blood work would be good so we got that then a chest xray and the decision to be admitted happened about 3 hours in. Thankfully the doctor upstairs was someone who didn't just get their license off the internet or something. She came down and looked him over and figured out that the site of his picc line was infected and set him up with some fluid and antibiotics.

He spent the night and I think at this point they are just keeping him for observation and to keep an eye on his levels and infection. I will find out more this morning.
