Re: Requesting Prayer for my brother.

Thank you all for your prayers and encouraging words. An infectious disease specialist was called in and he reported this afternoon that my brother has a staph infection that has entered his blood stream. I don't know why it took four days to identify, but I am very thankful it's not one of the exotic bacteria you get in hospitals. A third antibiotic was added to the two he was on already and a PICC line will be put in for infusion. He'll remain hospitalized for another 4 days and released if all goes well with the PICC line for infusions another 10 days at home. The specialist was very vague when my brother asked where he got the infection, just said post OP. Thank you again for your continuing prayers.
