Daniel is Home!

Daniel was discharged from the hospital yesterday (Thursday) afternoon. Laura had a three hour meeting with the home health nurse yesterday as he went through all of the initial information and trained her how to care for the PICC line and administer Daniel's antibiotic. Laura has to give Daniel his IV antibiotics every eight hours.

Its been a long month for Laura and the whole family. Please continue to pray for them. Pray that Laura is able to get the rest that she needs so she can continue caring for her family and pray God's will in the whole situation!

Thank you so much to all who have shared their love, concern and prayers with this amazing family!

Daniel has his PICC Line

I spoke with Laura a while ago and she said that Daniel got his PICC line with no complications and he is playing happily now. Laura will be instructed on the use and care of the PICC line and hopefully they will all be home tomorrow. A home health nurse will meet them at home and give more direction. The doctors said that Laura's quick identification of the area on his head that is infected kept him from getting a bone infection and/or a brain infection.
