Sunday update

Yesterday's tests were a pain. They wouldn't let him eat or drink until he had them, then didn't come to get him about 330! MEAN! They tried twice to get spinal fluid and the doctor on duty was either a complete idiot or inept. Have you ever heard of someone trying to pull spinal fluid out with the patient laying flat on their stomach??? Crazy. Anyway, they couldn't get any so he gets to go try again today! yeehaw. The CT scan did show sinus issues though which Dr. Cho said definitely could be the cause of the fevers and no doubt is the cause of his headaches and discomfort.

He slept most of the day yesterday (boring for Becky) as the nurses kept him pretty drugged up to keep those headaches at bay. Much nicer to hear him snore than groan. While he was gone for the tests yesterday I went exploring and found a back door down some long corridor (think Halloween 2 here) which led directly to the paths in the back of the hospital. I found myself sitting on a bench under a tree overlooking the river. What a wonderful and spiritual place to have a little talk with God! I have every faith that we are about done here. A day or two more I would think at the most. Hopefully I don't lose what's left of my sanity before then.

Mark is now on two antibiotics (yay) one of which targets the sinuses specifically so Dr. Cho said that IF that is the problem Mark should be feeling a lot of relief within 48 hours. We are currently on hour 12 roughly and his headaches do seem to be subsiding a bit. (although that COULD be the drugs too...)

So please keep praying my warriors! It's definitely working. We know there's a reason we didn't go home yesterday, we know there's a reason he's still getting fevers. We are trying to get our hearts and emotions to be in the same place as our brain....it's tougher than you might think.

God Bless
