Jeremy in room 1619

So Jeremy wasn't feeling well for a few days and was having trouble keeping food down. I took him to the ER in Ontonagon and they ran lab work and said that he's to sick for them to take care of him, so they transferred him to Wausau hospital. He arrived at approximately 3 am this morning.  Mom and I got down here at about 5 am.  Jeremy was brought to the ER as the doctor in Ontonagon didn't know what was wrong, just that something was.  Not too long Mom & I got here Jeremy got the diagnosis of pancreatitis. The hospitalist who admitted him explained that the treatment is an iv to keep fluids in him, treat the pain and the infection.  Anyway ... the doctor said it's a pretty hospital stay, because all they do is keep iv's going and do labs from time to time. He also said the treatment can last for days or a week and a half.  So, for now, Jeremy is in room 1619, he's in a unit that is a step down from icu.
