Is it Up and Down or Round and Round?

Maybe it's both. I guess if the brakes are broken on a roller coaster it will perpetually go round and round and up and down. I guess it really doesn't matter. Either way, my eyes are are still closed. Now I know why I never liked amusement parks. It's all too unpredictable and scary. But, I know who has the whole world in His hands and that includes my entire family, even though we are not at home. Come to think of it, none of us are really at home. We have a mansion being built for us as we speak and it is built on the golden glory road and not some rickety old coaster. This is a promise I am holding onto. So, it doesn't matter if my eyes are open or closed at this point.

The reason I bring this subject up is because we were told today that the bacteria growing in Megan's blood cultures was not growing in the peripheral access (they drew from her foot), it came from -you guessed it- the central line. We will have more information later today or early tomorrow about the course of treatment they want to take next. They might change some antibiotics depending on results of lab experiments on the bacteria, schedule her for surgery to remove the line and put in a different type of line in a different place, or treat the infection with the IV antibiotics like we did a couple weeks ago. Are you deja vu-ing yet?

The Infectious Disease (ID) Dr.'s are being consulted on what we should do once the tests finish. If you are not deja vu-ing yet, read this post. Round and Round we go. Where it stops only He knows. And, boy am I glad. All this stuff is way too hard and very tiring.
