Feverish

We have been watching Steve's temperature go up and down for the last day, but this afternoon it reached that bad magic number of 100.4. He is now at Maine General in Augusta getting IV antibiotics and will probably be there for the next few days. It is unclear what the source of the fever is, but we think it's from the mouth sore sitting on top of his tooth. Hopefully the antibiotic will alleviate the pain in his mouth. And of course, he needs more platelets tonight. Poor guy! It's time he caught a break.

  1. dang it! those mouth sores are awful. remember diluted Maalox, salt water swishes, and I think goldenseal but
    i don't know method or preparation. Ask Danielle if she knows something herbal for that.
