Daniel is still sick. He is better than he was Sunday, but still not back to being himself. He tolerates some holding again, but not usually more than once a day. Yesterday, for example, Lacie got to snuggle with him in the morning, holding him for a few hours, but when Davis came after work and got to hold him, his oxygen levels dropped hard and fast, so he had to go back in bed.

It's really hard to go from holding him almost all day back to only once maybe twice per day.

It's been almost 5 days that he's been on the antibiotics now, so he should be getting better soon. So far he's needing more and more oxygen support - today his settings are pretty high.

Hopefully he can keep this IV in - the poor guy has had 3 or 4 IVs already just this week.
They've had to keep putting in new ones because they have been going bad really fast.
