Elliott's health update

So yesterday was frustrating. Elliott had a fever, and it was fairly high so we were advised to go to the nearest ER. We first went to the Marlette ER, but they wanted him to transfer because they did not have platelets on site. We went to Lapeer, and after talk about being admitted there, the on-call oncologist was not answering their phone, so we got transferred again to Ann Arbor. Where El sat in the emergency room for four hours waiting to get a room upstairs. Hospitals are frustrating, but they are also helpful I suppose. 

Usually we would be out soon, but we have come to find out that Elliott has a bacterial infection in his intestines. Please pray that we don't have to spend all our off weeks in the hospital, and that this infection will respond well to antibiotics. Thanks for your prayers!!
