Back home on Tuesday 21 June, we didn't do too much. Spent time with the kids, called more family and friends, and relaxed the best we could. The whole ordeal that we had gone through for the past few days seemed so surreal. We called the CICU each morning and night that we weren't in Atlanta. Tuesday morning we found out that the infection was not responding to the antibiotics as well as the doctor had hoped. They were going to do a Lumbar puncture to make sure his infection wasn't Meningitis. They also upped his antibiotics and lengthened his treatment. It looked like his surgery would have to wait until the following week.
Wednesday was an improvement. The doctor said that Joshua's infection was getting better, but that we would still have to wait on the surgery (We were thinking maybe 5 or 6 July). I went to base for a little while: entered Joshua in DEERS, visited the squadron, dropped off recycling, stocked up on groceries at the commissary. We started packing for another trip to Atlanta.
