Rest of Today

Thanks to our friend Kelli, we got some more answers this evening ~ so far we haven't had more than a few seconds at a time with a doctor. But the head nurse came in and talked to us for a while and tomorrow morning the nurses will make sure a doctor comes in to talk to us. We know that Randy had a cat scan yesterday, but we have never heard the results. It would be nice to even hear that there have been no changes.

We did not get the results of the EEG (the test they ran on Randy for the seizures) today. We should get them tomorrow. One of the men that did the test told us to talk to him because he believes he can hear us (he said that he believed there was brain activity when he was talking to Randy and doing stimulus).

The nurse did tell us that the storming espisodes will eventually subside, which is good news.

Randy is still dealing with fever and they still don't know what is causing the fever. They started him on very strong anti-biotics tonight to hopefully take care of whatever is causing it.

He has something going on with his knees ~ we noticed one of them was very red and it was very hot to the touch. Then a little while later, it seemed to move to the other knee. Then it was on both knees. A doctor came and looked at it. We were concerned because that can be a sign of blood clots. The doctor said he didn't think it was blood clots because they had just ran a test to test to detect them. He ordered some blood tests to try to determine the cause of that.

This is everything that I can remember at this time. From all of those that visited today, if I have forgotten anything, definitely post it!!

I want to thank everyone for the continued support.
