Vic in the hospital again - June 30th

Last Thursday, June 25th, I had to take Vic to Morristown Memorial's emergency room as he started feeling really sick. Our son-in-law came with us since I need another pair of eyes to drive home in the dark. We arrived at the hospital around 8:45 pm - he was finally taken at 12:30 am! What a nightmare! There wasn't a bed for him on the cancer floor of the hospital, so he had to stay in emergency until 11:00 am the next day. They did perform another Cat Scan and his doctors came to see him and they were trying to keep him as comfortable as possible. The Cat Scan revealed another very large area of fluid in the left side of his abdomen and another area in his pelvis. By this time, he was getting sick to his stomach on a regular basis despite all the nausea medicine they were giving him. Yesterday, they did another "pumping out" of the fluid and also inserted a drainage tube. We thought the drainage tube would be more or less "permanent" for now but Vic was told by the doctor that it will probably be removed before he goes home. He's feeling a little better today, however, he's been running a fever since Sunday and has been in IV antibiotics since. They've done several blood tests and cannot determine where the fever is coming from. He also has to keep his leg propped up and on heat every 4 hours - the blood clots in his leg are numerous and it's now starting to bother him when he walks. Vic thinks he's coming home tomorrow, but I really doubt that. I'll update again when he comes home.
