Jon's blood calcium is now down to 11 (10 is normal) and he just had a 90% lucid conversation with the doctor. In addition to the calcium problem his bloodwork disclosed an infection that they suspect is coming from the fluid in his belly. They are about to perform a pericentesis to extract the fluid and send to the lab for testing. Next he will start on antibiotics. The doctor suspects that this has also contributed to his disorientation and confusion. He is resting comfortably.
