Rich has developed a blood infection. We all guessed this was from the insertion of his new picc line. Thursday around noon our fav nurse, Tracey, called Rich to tell him to get to the hospital immediately as he has this infection. Kurt came to see Rich the same time I did and the Lord put it on our heart to ask for all that we wanted from Him. We started with the usual stuff like" remove the picc line and kill the cancer" then Kurt started to ask for new knees, eyes, etc. Cool........have it all.
The good new, around 3 they removed the picc line. The CT scan did not show any conclusive evidence of where this infection started. We are praying for strength for Rich and now that his body isn't being compromised, it should happen fast. The infection control doc came by yesterday and told him that going to Australia isn't a good idea. He claimed his healing. Walking it out is the hard part. Straub wants to keep a close eye on him to see if this infection grows, dies, whatevers. I see him so stuck there. Fortunately he has WiFi and can entertain himself with his Ipad. I am doing a little yard work this morning (Saturday the 27th) for the tenting next week and then will spend the day with him. Andrew spends his evenings with his dad. This guy has matured to be a man. It's amazing to see him and his decision making. Wow. Suz will be back on island Nov. 14th. How sweet that will be for all of us but especially for Rich.
