Update

My brother was released from the hospital Sunday night.  When I talked to him he said he was still pretty weak and tired so I had to remind him that it takes a while to recover from a serious illness.  He also said he feels sore like he has been working out but he of course hasn't.  It sounds like his muscles still need to recover as well.  He will be on antibiotics for a couple more weeks and they want to draw blood again at the end of this week.  So far it seems like he is going be fine and he probably just needs to take it easy for a while.  Thanks so much for the prayers and kind words, I am very grateful.  I have realized that it is easy to take people around you for granted and we never really know or even expect something bad to happen to someone you care about.  It really makes me think about my kids and how lucky I am that they have never been seriously ill.  With all the illnesses out there, good health really is a blessing!
