a little bump in the road



Well -- Tyler has been making small improvements since coming home from the hospital last Friday.

However, this morning he awoke with a low-grade fever and kept telling me he was hot while holding on to his head.

Two hours later -- sure enough he began to have a foul-smelling discharge from his trach with thick secretions being coughed up.

I called the doctor right away who, in turn, called in an antibiotic for Tyler to get started on right away.

Hopefully we caught this early enough that he won't have to go back in the hospital.

Keep your fingers crossed.

The photo above was taken last October as Craig and Tyler were cleaning out the inside of a pumpkin. You can see that Tyler found this to be very amusing.
