Back in ICU

Around 3:30 this morning we headed back to the hospital due to a high fever. We're getting this routine down pretty good by now. Just as we expected, blood tests, chest x-rays, etc. were done to try to find the cause of the fever. I was really thinking I should go back home around 6:30 instead of trying to sleep in the recliner in Ray's room. Thank God I didn't go home! Ray started to complain that he was freezing and began to shiver. I went to get another blanket for him, but knew something wasn't right when I got back. I immediately called for help and within seconds the whole place was in an whirlwind. The Rapid Response Team was called. He was in "septic shock." It didn't take long to stabilize him. But then of course we knew that meant ICU. Right now, I'm not sure how long he'll be there. He's mostly slept since he's been moved. I'm hoping to have some answers soon.

The only pain that he's been having is simliar to a sinus infection. But a CT scan was done yesterday on the sinuses and there was no sign of infection there or "anything suspicious."

I'm really worried about that man of mine. Please keep him in your prayers.

I'll try to keep you updated. I tried to post earlier from the hospital, but their public computers were down.

Love you all,
Kim
