Mt Sinai Part 2

After being told he has roseola, we thought it was over. However, we were wrong... that Saturday another fever appeared again. He was at a high of 101 -- Sunday he was hoovering around 99 and high 100s. We called it in, and on Monday both his ped and liver team talked it out and said it's most likely another viral infection he caught and give him a break. However if other symptoms show - such as vomiting - we need to go back to the ER. Well of course Kyle decided that on Tuesday he wanted to make a trip there. He vomits and is at a high of 103.

The trip to the ER turned into a stay of 48 hours. Although it turned out there was no bacterial in his blood stream -- his liver enzymes numbers were trending high enough to be alarming the day we went in, which had us staying. Great to see his nurses and docs...but def not condition we would of wanted it to be. At the end of the day after several rounds of tests and a few rounds of antibiotics they discharged him saying it was 99% viral. We're going back there Monday for another round of blood test just to make sure all is good and trending down.

The best part -- I guess more for daddy is NFL draftees made an appearance at the hospital day of draft. He got some autographs and a pic of RG3.

More pics to be posted shortly.

A year after...

A year ago Kyle was admitted in the hospital for cholangitis- not once but twice in a month. It was over 15 days staying there. And today, we spent about 4 hours in the same hospital. Lucky it his bili number is .2 over 0 -- so there was no alarm in signs of cholangitis. He does however still had a slight fever and his liver enzymes were elevated-- but they will sent us home, which I'm ever so grateful for. below are pics of Kyle at the hospital-
