Update on Tom

Tom started the antibiotic last night. His fever seems to have broken and he was up and about all day. He made himself a pot of chicken vegetable soup, as per the orders of his doctor and has been drinking lots of water. He walked over to the neighbors for a brief visit, despite the rain. That gave me a chance to vacuum, something I had not been able to do since last Friday because the noise bothered him.

This is not over, of course, but things are looking much better at the moment. Thanks to all of you who commented or emailed to express support.
