Infection & Fever

Nick is on three antibiotics trying to beat an infection that happened because his white blood count goes to zero from the chemo. It is not working yet but he is stable and the doctors are confident that it will start working soon. Although this is very difficult for all of us, we are being told that this is totally expected and that there is nothing you can do to avoid it. All you can do is treat it once it happens and we are doing that. Nick, although quiet, is keeping his spirits up and being tough through it all.
