MRI tomorrow


Nolan has continued to improve and today was the best! It's so good see him laughing and playing again :-)  He had his check up at the clinic on Wednesday and everything was perfect!! His blood counts were awesome and his blood pressure was normal.

Tomorrow is Nolan's MRI of the brain and spine.  I really dread these and to make things harder we probably won't get results till next week due to Nolan's doctor being out of town.
They have been trying to talk me into letting him get a spinal tap and I haven't truly felt good about this yet.  He hasn't had his spinal fluid checked in about three years. Mainly because every time they try they only get a drop or two of fluid and it wasn't worth the risk.  The risks are infection and spinal headaches but it also rules out infection and tumor cells. Please pray that we make the very best decision for Nolan and that everything will go smoothly tomorrow.  Also keep Nolan's buddy Brayden in your prayers...He had his MRI today (they haven't got the results yet) and he broke his leg really bad :-(  The poor little guy is in a lot pain and might need surgery in the morning.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.  Philippians 4:6-7
