We got the results of Bobbinog's Bacterial Infection today. He has MRSA. (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus). We are told it is known as the MRSA Superbug. It is multiple drug resistant. It is normally this bacteria which causes septasemia. Not good not. Due to his compromised immune system it is very risky for him. We are also told it causes more deaths than Aids each year. So at the moment we are quite a bit stressed. However, the good side of this is that we may have caught it early. He has not shown any symptoms, and he is still happy and completely healthy. Not sure if the bug is in his blood stream or in the broviac. They have started him on the strongest available anti-biotics. They are talking about removing the broviac, as it can cause major problems for him and septasemia, but will know more as we go. They need to do more tests and cultures. But as its still under control, hopefully the drugs will zap it. Will know more as we go. Hold thumbs and pray we beat this.
