Adam is having a great day so far! He slept really well last night. He's also a little more interested in eating again. But the best news, he's fever free and using his right arm with little to no pain! In fact, he's become very active again. We had to bring in more toys to keep him busy. If not, he's trying to get the IV cord.
We also received a good report from the doctors. Yesterday, they decided against doing another MRI for now. Then today, the Attending was pleased with the amount of movement with the right arm and the fact he's been fever free for 24 hours without Tylenol or Motrin. They also ordered another blood test. If those numbers come back lower, then we could be headed home sometime Wednesday. However, Adam will continue the antibiotic treatment orally. Here's the catch: the medication is not so tasty. We're going to do a test round here at the hospital to see how Adam reacts. The doctors say it's extremely important that he continue to the antibiotic treatment on a regular basis to help fight the infected part of his bone.
Thanks again for all the thoughts and prayers! They're definitely being answered!
