Hospital Day 3

clark is still on oxygen. he's making some progress, but the pediatric doctor here in the hospital said that the first 3 to 5 days with r.s.v. are the worst and then most kids start to get better after that. so hopefully tomorrow will be better.

when clark was in the emergency room, the nurses and doctor took blood, stuck a tube in his weenie and took urine, and did a spinal tap. both clark and elise had spinal taps done when they were newborns. poor babies. but anyhow, the results of clark's cultures came back today and he does not have a bacterial infection. just that respiratory virus. so we wont be stuck in the hospital for a week while he does a round of intravenous antibiotics. we're just waiting for him to come off of the oxygen.

i miss my family-- husband, elise, henry, georgia, even the cats. i'm glad i get to stay with clark while he's sick, but i look forward to having my family back together soon.
