Well, it is 4am and I just got back from taking Ken to the ER this evening.  Yesterday we saw his surgeon and he was diagnosed with an infection involvoing the area behind his nose, his ears, and his tongue.  He prescribed antibiotics for that and we will follow up with him in a month for that, and to have another tube put in one of his ears.

Ken has never really stopped vomitting since the last time he was in the hospital.  It slowed down alot, but never completely left.  Well, for the last 3 days it has been increasing, getting really bad last night and today.  So, he’s back in the hospital as he can’t keep down any of his meds (including his anti-nausea meds) or his feedings.

So please keep Ken in your prayers.  He is just so tired of all this crap.  And I’m tired of it. 

RT is a cumulative process, so we were told things will probably get a bit worse before it gets better.  I know God is not supposed to give you more than you can handle.  I keep repeating that in my mind.  I cannot imagine how he could be any sicker than he already is.  He told me he sees how people just give up not caring if they live or die.  He is really miserable and has been for weeks.  Hopefully all of this sickness means that the RT is really working.  The surgeon told us yesterday we might not know for 3, 6 or 9 mos whether or not it worked.  ::sigh::

Please just keep us, especially Ken in your prayers.  We just need a vacation from all of this sickness and hospitals and medecine and tests.
