K has been in the hospital since friday night fighting a bad staph infection. At least the doctor said he was 90% sure it is a staph infection. The test results have not come in yet.

Naturally K is scared and so am I. His immune system is so low because of the cancer. Everyone says when you go to the charity hospital you get a staph infection and he went in with one. The area around his i.v. became inflamed and they had to move the needle to his hand. I am worried that staph has settled at this spot. The nurse that moved the i.v. said that the antibiotics the doctors are giving K can destroy the vein because they are so strong.

He is running out of good veins. They have trouble taking blood. They can only take his blood pressure on his left arm now. It is so so sad.
