Day 3

The Dr. came in this morning about 7am and tried to get him to move his neck a little bit and he had a little more range of motion from side to side and he even looked down which yesterday he couldn't do at all. Even better news, he hasn't had pain medicine since 10pm last night. However, in the last 10 minutes he's been grabbing his neck again and crying. He's also started grabbing his lower back but I think that might be related to him feeling the soreness from his spinal tap. They have ordered him some more medicine so hopefully he will be more comfortable soon.

There are talks of sending us home today. As much as I would love to have the comforts of home, I still feel very uneasy since he is not a whole lot is different from when we got here other than we have ruled out some very scary possibilities. His neck still hurts and he still has fever. I feel like the doctors are at the end of their rope and don't know what else to test him for so all they know to do is send him home and hope that it clears up on it's own. That's a very scary thought for me to have to see him in pain at home and not have immediate access to the the staff and drugs. I am so thankful they have not found anything serious but please pray the doctors press on to figure out the cause of his symptoms.
