Just wanted to let everyone know that Burton and I are staying strong. I have managed to
keep his fever around 104 with the occasional (every couple hours) foot wipe with alcohol,
and SQ fluids. He is a fighter. Much stronger than I am I think ;) Thanks for all the tips and
well wishes. It really helps. Does anyone know off hand how much SQ fluids is too much? I
am trying to keep him eating so as to not deplete his electrolytes, but I don't want to over
do the fluids either.

thanks again,

amanda, burton and izzy (burton's sister(

BTW...the muscle biopsy is mon, hoping to have the results by wed. i messed up in my last
post.
