Andrew had an allergic reaction to the antibiotics he received yesterday which caused some serious issues, and pushed everything back.  Because of his illness he is on quarantine and not able to leave his room and his nurses have to wear gowns every time they enter to ensure they don’t spread anything.  He started getting his blood transfusion at 10:00pm and it went through the night.  He is feeling a little better today but still has diarrhea.   He just got re-accessed for his port and the nurse missed his port with the needle 2 times. 

We just saw the Dr and Andrew will be in the hospital until at least Friday.  He is having memory loss and confusion which we are hoping are related to the antibiotics.  We will try to start back up his feeding tube at a very slow rate tonight and hope he doesn’t react poorly.  We tried to start his feeds twice and he started throwing up immediately so we will see.
