Happy Labor Day!

Maggie's at home feeling pretty good, we think. We went to the doctor's office a couple times and had more blood drawn to check for bacteria...more standard follow up after getting a fever. So there were 3 labs taken, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Interestingly, only the Wednesday sample seems to have shown any bacteria--a strep bacteria of some kind. So, more than likely a contaminant got into that sample while it was gathered. Whitney talked to a nurse today and her guess was that Maggie caught a virus, not a more serious bacterial infection. So, the best part is that her broviac isn't infected.

We've enjoyed a pretty good weekend here. Maggie's sleeping and eating are off a little bit, so that's been the main concern.

We see the doctor tomorrow, and should find out more then--maybe chemo and our 5+ day hospital visit are around the corner.

So glad that broviac isn't infected.

I'm mailing something for Maggie tomorrow.

Love and prayers.
