Starting IV Abx tomorrow

[cobbiemommy]

DS, 13, will start IV treatment tomorrow. PICC line will be inserted around 7:45 and first dose administered right after that. I am really nervous but hopeful that this is the beginning of the end.

 

If you believe in the power of prayer, please send some up for him tomorrow.

My DS7 finished day 2 today.

 

How about we do an exchange prayer

Best to everyone. Honestly I think its a very good step, many of the people that I have read that recover do so with IV abx. Please update and stay strong.

I will pray for your son. My own prayers seem pretty weak but I think that is because I am tired... There were times when I felt like I had surrendered all to the Lord, but now I know that I wasn't even close. I hope I am able to just open myself up to all that God has to offer for DS and myself. This is a very humbling journey.

Cobbie et al...

Stay the course. God is good - I thank Him everyday that I found answers for my son. Otherwise, we would have lost him to his psychiatric issues.

 

Praying all goes well tomorrow.

I believe that IV antibiotics are the way for chronic infection. I also believe God is the way. I will pray for your family. Please keep us posted. I am very interested to hear how the IV antibiotics work. If you don't mind can you tell me or PM me which doctor ordered the IV antibiotics for your son. Also, how long were you on oral antibiotics before going this route? Keep the faith.
