Infection returns

Just a quick note to let you know that AJ's infection is back. His G tube hole is closing up to normal size; for which we are thankful.  We caught the infection really early and he will go back on his oral antibiotic today.  Hopefully that we keep him out of the hospital.  He has also started some narcotic pain meds.  I really have held back on starting narcotics but this infection has caused such pain for him.  I hope it is only for a short time.  He is also experiencing  very painful muscle spasms in his abdomen around the g-tube site.  He can take Valium to help settle that down.  Thanks for your prayers.  AJ seems to manage a happy attitude through all of this.
