Mike

I post to facebook often about Mike and how he is doing....But I don't on the blog very much....Soooo if you don't have FB, just know that he needs your continued prayers....He had round 2 of chemo treatment last Thursday at MD Anderson...He wears a pump the next 4 days (through Monday) that administers more chemo to him...When the pump stops, he has to be in Houston within 24 hrs (Tuesday) to get a shot....
So Mom and Mike were lucky enough to have someone fly them down to Houston yesterday for his shot....He also has been having some sciatic pain and they wanted to do a MRI on him as well....
But last week he had this little place on his knee and it was hurting him...On Sunday, it was worse....Monday he went to the doctor here in WF and he put him on some strong antibiotics and said that if it wasn't better in 48 hrs, he needed to be admitted to the hospital...
Fortunately, Mike's chemo doctor (who doesn't work on Tuesdays) came up to see him b/c his leg is now so swollen from the ankle to his mid-thigh, that it hurts too bad to walk on it...He was admitted to the hospital yesterday afternoon and they will remain there until he starts getting better since it has continued to get worse so quickly....
So keep Mike in your prayers that this infection heals quickly and that the medicines relieve his pain b/c he is really hurting right now:(
