Testing continues

Jackie was admitted from the ER to the NICU last night. Since then he has gone through an intense battery of tests. The right side of his head and face is swollen. He is on three different types of antibiotics. They are still working to determine the cause of the swelling.

On a positive note the pressure in his brain is stable and an ultrasound showed that his blood clot has resolved itself and is no longer there. PTL

His neuro function is not where we would like it to be, but are hoping it will just take his body time to build itself back up and get healthy again.

Hopefully we may have more answers tomorrow. Thomas Jefferson is an incredible hospital with a top notch Neuro team.

I will most likely only post once a day until we get through this hurdle.

Thanks for all of your positive thoughts prayers and support.
