We're going to do an Andrew update only today because we'd like everyone to pray for him.

There's been some concern over the last few days that Andrew has an infection. We didn't say anything because he's not symptomatic and his initial blood work came back fine. His temperature was elevated on Friday and his heart rate was as well, but the initial tests showed nothing. A culture was taken on Friday and the results came back Saturday night. It showed a bacterial infection, so the staff started him immediately on antibiotics. He had an x-ray this morning that was cloudy, which could be fluid in his lungs. He's had fluid in his lungs in the past, and they've given him a diuretic. He's on the same diuretic now. We are waiting on a second culture and identification of the bacteria. We're asking everyone to pray that he would be clear of infection and that the cultures would come back negative. Thank you all.
