Mark seems to be turning the corner. His fever is gone, less and less bile is draining from his stomach. It appears that the infection is going away. Mark remains quite tired and weak. He did not sleep at all last night. His mind was not letting him rest. They are talking about a return to the regular floor and out of ICU in the next few days. The bone marrow aspiration and biopsy will be done once he has regained some strength.
