Yes that's right! Poor
Casen had Salmonella, not just any old salmonella but the worse kind of all! The kind of salmonella that effects your blood and your intestines. Although it was the worse month of his life (and OURS!), he is on the up and up. After 8 days in the hospital, and 21 days of an at home iv antibiotic every 6 hours, he is doing much better! We are still taking 21 days of an oral antibiotic, and then hopefully it wont come back! It might, so we have to have 3 months of stool samples! His Dr. thinks he is doing really well and is quite optimistic that he won't have a relapse! If he does, we will have to have his gall bladder taken out! I am just hoping and praying for a full recovery!
Here are a few pictures of
Casen's nightmare stay in the hospital! The hospital was great and the nurses were wonderful (well, most of them!), it was just a nightmare for us!
This is
Casen's hospital bed and room!
Casen laid around like this for most of his stay. He did not feel well at all! He was watching
tv with Michael.

This is the bed that Michael and I had to sleep on together while we were there. It was so tiny, but we were so exhausted so the little sleep we did get was not bothered by how small this bed was!

This is
Casen's picc line. This was used for an iv port and to draw blood from.

He was feeling much better in this picture. He was getting a little stir crazy and ready to get home! We were just happy to have our little
Casen on the road to recovery!

All in all, it has been a wild crazy month! BUT
Casen is doing remarkably better!
