Update on Dad's Skin Condition

Hi Everyone,

Dad is still in the hospital. It seems the skin problems were some type of Staph infection and they mentioned something called Impintago (spelling??).
He has been having horrible reactions now to Nupegin (spelling?) and the other day they had a crash cart and about 12 people in his room because his blood pressure goes down real low, he has bad chest pains and breaks out into a cold clammy sweat . . . We are now panicking because we don't know what they will give him now to increase white blood cells . . . Has this happened to anyone out there and if so, what did you then get put on?
He has a sign now outside is room that say Neupogenic . . . no flowers, fruit etc. can be brought into the room . . .
He is very sick so please if you believe in prayer . . . pray for us . . .

Love you all . . .
Donna E.
