Update on Travis

So Travis lands in Indianapolis yesterday afternoon feeling worse than ever. He leaves the airport and goes to an urgent care facility. When he gets there, they take a look at his ankle and told him he had to go to the the ER because they were suspicious that it was a blood clot. After a few anxious hours we find out it's not a blood clot but a terrible infection. I couldn't figure where or how he got an infection. Travis said last Tuesday at Chancellor's little league game he cut his leg, well more like punctured it, on a piece of metal. He thought so little of it that he didn't even mention it to me and he said he figured it would be fine because he cleaned it and put peroxide on it. Guess not! So after a few hours in the emergency room, IV antibiotics, fluids and pain medication they sent him "home" to his hotel room. He will continue to take antibiotics and just keep watch on it. I can tell you when we first thought it was a blood clot, I was already checking into flights and the weather so I could pack. We are so blessed that it was treatable and nothing more severe. When Lily talked to him this morning she said, "Daddy, is your uncle all better?" We can't wait to see you tomorrow night and we love you so very much!
