Melinda had another restful night and day today. All of her stats were good and stable. Dr. Huff came in a said that her blood culture had showed some infection. He said that the antibiotic that Melinda was on will work on this type infection. He also said that he was going to call in a Dr. Brown to look and treat Melinda. She is an infectious disease doctor. The nurses say she is very good. Dr. Huff said she will probably change her antibiotic to more specifically target her infection. Dr. Huff changed her oxygen pressure from 50 to 40 today and says Melinda is doing good and will leave her sedated for a little while longer.

Christie agreed to stay at home another day and take care of a few more errands. She said she had a good night of sleep and it felt good to be back in her bed. I am so thankful that she is getting a break to get some rest.

Thank everyone for your thoughts and prayers. I know they are being answered.

God Bless.
