Noah had his follow-up appointment at Children's today. The doctor was pleased with his progress. She decided to leave him on the IV antibiotics for another 10 days, and then switch him to oral antibiotics for 2 more weeks after that. That means that Noah will still have the PICC line for 10 more days, as long as everything is okay with it (i.e. it is functioning well and doesn't get infected.)
She actually removed a stitch that remained in is chest wound, which is healing okay (not perfectly, but okay!)
On Tuesday, Noah will have a cbc done (bloodwork) to make sure that he is doing okay with the antibiotics and to check on his anemia. He will have a chest x-ray in one month!
That about does it! The report was good and we're all so glad!

It is good to hear that Noah is improving. We will still keep him in our prayers. We miss you all.
