hiya :) jeremy is doing very well. he still has fevers, but his white blood count is at 15.5! his heart rate is under control right now and he is on cpap mode for his ventilator! he still has some infections, but seems to be doing great. he is keeping down his foods very well. we were told he wouldn't reach his goal proteins of 137 per day for at least one month... we are already hitting it! they put a wound vac on his stomach today and said it will help it to heal even faster :) there is a part of the hospital called select specialty (not owned by osu... they rent space out) jeremy may go to next week to start more intense rehab :) it's like a go-between until he is ready for dodd hall. i can't wait to get out of this tiny room! i saw georgeanne again today and she looks great! she hopes to be home by wednesday. she said she will be moved to the bariatric rooms tonight. i took a picture of her so she could remember her stay at the hospital and she was so happy to have that. please, everyone, keep prayng for speedy recoveries for them both... so they can go home! :) love, robbi

hiya everyone. jeremy is doing okay today. his fever was up to 104.4 yesterday, but is 99 right now. they did more swallowing tests and determined that he is okay to eat and drink the step 2 diet safely and possibly start the step 3 soon (which sounds way too fast to me). as for his lung infection... he still has it, but they did other tests and they think it isn't as bad as they thought. go figure. muscarella was in and looked at his wound and said it is great, except for one little area he has to keep an eye on. they put another new line in jeremy's neck today, but they have him off almost all of his drips now and has been taking most of his medication by mouth :) diana stanton, her daughter jennifer and valerie curry all visited jeremy this week. he was glad to see good company :) i got to visit georgeanne carter and she looked very good and she hopes to go home this friday. everything else is great. keep jeremy and georgie in your prayers please... they both need it :) love, robbi

Hi Jeremy and Roberta: I have just been able to read udates on how Jeremy is doing. Sorry it took so long, but my son had a cold, now the Flu. I wanted you and your family to know that you are in my thoughts constantly. I also wanted to let you know that my son is also a Spiderman fan as well! It is good to know that my son is in great company! Love to you both - Sheri

hello. jeremy is doing alright. his white blood count is 21,000, so it's still sticking around. he was moved up to the micu last night and it isn't too great. the room is TINY! we barely fit myself and his dad in there and we have to get out everytime the nurse walks in! he is running a fever of 103 today and we can't seem to break it yet. Also, all of the nurses here have different answers for everything. they claim he doesn't need isolation and they don't know what the sicu nurses were thinking when they put him on it. they are turning down his vent and he's not tolerating it well. his tpn was taken off today and they want him to start eating meals, so he had some beef broth and orange jello. this is all very furstrating and jeremy is miserable. they said once he is off of the vent and better, then he can get a regular room on the floor. that would be nice. there is absolutely no room for cards or gifts, so it is bare and boring. i left a balloon in there for him so he can look at something other than the television. i'll let you know more as it comes. please keep praying for him. love, robbi
