May 18 Day 23

Hi Everone,
It sure is good to be home! Unfortunately my temperature has risen every night since I came home and today the doctor said that it sounds like I might have an infection somewhere. He had the lab take a blood culture where they see if anything grows for a few days and if it does, they test it to see what it is, then treat it with antibiotics. The problem for me is that the antibiotics have to be given in the hospital so I would have to go back in for a while (I don't know how long). Please pray that I don't have an infection! My taste and appetite haven't returned fully yet, only a little but they say it doesn't take too long. My strength was pretty good until this morning, I walked up the stairs and it was like I climbed Mt. Everest I was so tired. The doctor didn't seem to be concerned about that so it probably happens. Everyone I've talked to said that I will face setbacks, maybe this was one. I'm feeling better tonight but I feel a little warm again. I hope all of you are well. God bless.
IN HIS HANDS,
Ernie

I will pray that you don't have an infection and that your teste and appetite returns soon. I will also pass these concerns along to the men's Bible study in the morning.
