Home from the hospital

Zack came down sick last Wednesday and had a horrible cough. I took him to the Dr on Friday and said he had the flu. After another sleepless night and trying to break his fever (highest at 103.8) we decided to take him to the ER. We were in the ER for about 6 hours when they told us that they were going to admit him because his White Blood count was extremely low and thought that he had pneumonia. With him being immune suppressed they did not want to take any chances. Once we got to the pediatric ward they put him in a isolation room. All the Dr's who came in had to wash up and wear a mask and gown. He was not allowed visitors. The DR came in this morning and said that he may have to stay another few nights and I called his Stanford Dr, DR. Lee faster than he could leave the room. She consulted a Infectious Disease DR and they decide that he could go home if we locked down the house. He is not to leave until we see her on Thursday. He was a little cranky boy today and was sick of being poked and tested for everything under the roof. He is very happy to be home and is ok with not leaving the house. I hope we get good news on Thursday. Wish him luck.
