Joshua's still hanging in there....

Joshua’s temperature has improved since yesterday, from 99.0 to 98.5. Our nurse indicated that the temperature is better but he will still be on antibiotics. Some of Joshua’s results came back, and the flu, and other infection test came back negative. His white blood cells (fights infections) came back normal. We are still waiting for one more test tomorrow (Sunday) to determine if he has any other type of infection. Joshua also had a problem today regarding having too much air in his stomach and intestines. After making some changes with his tubes in his stomach, some air was released. They will continue to monitor this situation throughout the night. Also, Joshua has been trying to grab the tubes from his mouth all day, and has been very active. The doctor recommended that he will be given more drugs to sedate him. Overall the doctor stated he is doing just fine but yesterday (Friday) was better.
