	Oh, poor Derek - I am so sorry! Please send him a hug from me and tell him I hope he is better very soon. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It seems there are no complications with the meningitis. Luckily it is a viral one, not a bacterial. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's at least something. I still feel he has far too much to put up with, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He is receiving drugs to make him sleep, so his body can focus on healing. He is also getting medicine to prevent complications and to treat symptoms. Hopefully he will be okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
