July 27

Steve's CT scan indicated that his abscess has drained, but he still has fluid surrounding his left lung. His teams are discussing whether or not to drain the fluid. In the meantime, Steve's fevers still are trending down (hooray!) They also have cultured out another strain of bacteria (this time anaerobic) from his abscess, so they've started him on the antibiotic Flagyl. Except for the fevers, Steve is feeling better and has more energy.

  1. That is great news! Keep it continuing. I was scheduled to see Dr. Hufford today(7/28) for my 6 month blood test. While I knew of the surgery, just found out about this blog doing a search.
    Thank you so much for it.
    We will continue to keep you in our thoughts and prayers. The way the Giants are going, you'll need to build up your strength so that you can go to the playoff games in October.
    Take care.
