Higher temperature

last night a home care nurse visited us again to check on Raphael's progress. His temperature had risen to 39 and he was quite placid. Normally when he has high temperature he is grumpy. Being a little concerned, the nurse contacted our paediatrician again and she sat with Raphael while he slept for an hour to make sure that he was going to be ok at night.

He was fine all last night and the only equipment alarm that went off was the NGT pump which just an easily fixed kink in the tube that stopping the flow at one point.

Without this fabulous service and care from the home care team we would probably have had to admit Raphael to hospital last night so I am very grateful to the people that make this service possible.

So glad you're able to stay out of the hospital for the sake of your whole family. We'll pray Rapgael takes a turn upward!

Blessings!
