More sadness...

More sad news. My little nephew, Tito, has been in Oakland Children's Hospital now for almost 2 weeks. He was hospitalized earlier in the month with severe dehydration and pnemonia and was in for about a week. He was sent home once they got his fever to break and he started eating again. He was of course sent home with anti biotics, took those for a week but they didn't do anything. When he was done taking those and still wasn't coughing and started getting a fever again my sister took him back to the emergency room and they sent them to the Children's Hospital.

They did x rays and tests and discovered that his left lung was collapsed because he had so much fluid in his chest cavity and they intubated him to drain the fluid. They took the tubes out 2 days ago and were going to send him home but he now has air in his chest that is collapsing his lung and the fever has come back. They have him on oxygen to try to get the air to move/leave his chest cavity. So it looks like they're not going to get to go home after all. My poor sister has been living at the hospital with him for the past 13 days and poor Tito had to spend his birthday sick in the hospital with tubes in his chest. Thoughts and prayers would be greatly appreciated.

Hopefully I'll have some good things to post about soon. I took a bunch of picture of the girls playing in the leaves yesterday, I'll try to get those pictures posted this evening.
