So many people have asked what they can do to help. Just keep praying-we are really feeling the power of prayer and need as many people praying as we can get. So if you can add him to a prayer list, please do so!
All we can do is wait right now. Wait for his brain to stop swelling--the Doctors are hopeful that he has 'swelled out' as much as he's going to and now it just needs to move in the right direction. From his scan at 2am this morning to an additional scan at 11am, it had done that. We just hope it continues in that direction. The nurse was extremely pleased that when she took him off sedation for his neurology check today, he opened his eyes! He didn't do that yesterday-so that's another baby step in the right direction.
And last night during our visit, they took him off sedation and he squeezed Mom and Dad's hands! We threatened that his bossy big sister was going to fuss at him if he didn't do it, and he did it right away! We know he's in there fighting hard!
He is still extremely critical and is at risk for pnemonia and other infections. So pray for his strength.
Thanks so much for the outpouring of faith, prayers and kind words. Keep the juicy prayers going up!
