December 4, 2006 - Prayers for Positive Outcome...

Good Morning! Just a quick prayer request . . . This weekend we noticed that Erik's shirt was wet after his medication infusion. Yesterday, we saw that it appears that the medication is leaking through the site of the broviac. This does not appear to cause discomfort or anything for Erik. The obvious concerns are if he has been receiving all of his medication and if the broviac will have to be replaced. Please pray for positive, successful, and simple resolution. We are hoping that perhaps the decision will be to remove the broviac and begin oral antibiotic treatment. This would only be the case if the doctors believe he has received adequate therapy to date which we are not optimistic about. He may have to have it replaced. Erik has an appointment this morning at Duke so we will know more today. We will keep everyone updated and thanks in advance for your prayers and support! Love in Christ, Erik's Family
