yes, I saw it. I e-mailed Patrick yesterday. He seems to be on the right track with his illness. It is up to the physician that he will see Friday to follow-up with appropriate therapy.
 
I offered him some support and encouragement to follow through and advocate for his needs. If he has what I think he has, then he will need to undergo several months of antibiotic therapy. If the infection has not progressed far enough to cause real problems, then he should be ok in several weeks.
 
Let's all keep him on our thoughts and wish him a speedy recovery.
