Emergency hospital visit

Just so everyone knows, dad was put into the ICU very early this morning. He had a fever over 102 and was very weak passing out on the bed a couple of times. Mom brought him to the hospital where they were waiting at the front doors for him. They put him in the bone marrow unit and could not get him stabilized so they put him in the ICU. He is still there with a very low blood pressure that won't seem to come up. They are doing everything they can and the doctors are amazing here. All of his tests so far have come back good and they think it could be one of three things, sepsis, engraftment syndrome again or organizing pneumonia. They are treating him for all three things but he will have to be in the ICU for 24 to 36 hours at least.

We will keep everyone posted and we really appreciate all your love and prayers. Please send them dads way!
