Thursday Dec. 17th... still waiting

Well, it's almost 5:00 pm and we are still waiting to hear from MRI to see if they will get him in today.  Shay is stable, he is off of all the blood pressure medicine and holding his own.  His heart rate is good and they have turned the ventilator down to 50% oxygen.  He is doing fine on the Prizma dialysis too.

There hasn't been much of a change, his feet moved during the night while Aunt Kelly was keeping watch over him, but the nurse has a big huge name for what it was and apparently, it isn't anything for us to get too excited about just yet.  One thing that did happen today, while the nurse was cleaning Shay's mouth with this sponge that has this yucky mint flavored stuff on it, he bit down on the sponge and kind of scrunched up his face, he did it again when she cleaned his mouth later on.  The nurse again told us that she is not sure if it was a reflex or if he just didn't like that sponge, but I am betting that he didn't like that sponge.  :)

If we do get to go down to the MRI later, I will post again.  In the meantime, please continue to pray for the whole and complete healing of Shay, mind and body.  Thanks so much!
Love,
Danny and Christy
