Restless Night!

Matt was so excited getting his NG tube out and seeing Casey, Linda, Jenny, Nate and Brett last night that he had a hard time sleeping again. His temp was up last night at 102.4 so at 1:30am they took a chest xray. This morning the Doctors came for their usual visit and said that his port might be infected. That would explain why he had a fever. They are treating him with antibiotic's. They are doing a 24 hour watch on his catheter bag so he can get it out tomorrow. Matt is enjoying a Gatorade today. He is so HAPPY!! He was up walking with Casey twice already this morning. Matt enjoyed the video of alot of family and friends that Jenny made at home and brought to the hospital. Now he is a little tired and going to take a nap.
