Hopefully

The surgery went really well. When the doctor got in there the infection was in his mastoid bone not in the tissue as originally thought. When the infection is on the bone it can be deadly. Thankfully they got to it in time so it did not spread to his brain. They had to remove some bone and Doug says that even tho he hurts he feels better. The doctor thinks that this was the source of all his high fevers and seizures. He is on the strongest and the highest dose of antibiotics that are out there. Maybe this time we have this thing licked. He will be in the hospital until at least Monday maybe longer, we will see. Thanks for all your thoughts, calls, and prayers. Love you guys.
