Last monday i got a call form my dad. He is in the hospital again, not for heart problems this time but possible sepsis (blood infection). I talked to a nurse at work and she said that more than likely he will be fine, they will find the source and give him antibiotics and that would be the end of that. After many tests, the doctors could not find a source for infection. His fever was still high between, 101 and 102, also his white blood cell count was higher than it should be. He called me today and let me know what it was, not a blood infection but leukemia. Now i don't know what form it is. We don't know what the treatment and prognosis will be. I talked to him yesterday and he didn't sound good, a worried tone in his voice. I figured he was just exhausted from everything, trying to maintain a positive outlook
