“Last night David did not sleep very well, he's still in a large amount of pain and has a hard time moving. He got some pain killers yesterday (something that began with a D) but it still isn't helping much. More prayer is always requested.”Doctor Klein came in this evening with the results of the Lumbar Puncture. She said there was no cancer in his CSF (Cerebral Spinal Fluid)! Thanks for all your prayers! There may be some in his meninges (membranes covering the brain and spinal cord), they can’t tell from the current tests.
Chrissy called with the Sunday, Sept. 9, 2012 MRI results. She was told there were NO lesions on the brain or signs of swelling. Since the test at UCI came back fine, they’ve asked us to drive up to UCLA and pick up the MRI packet so they can compare the tests. UCLA’s test said David had a “thickening of the brain membrane”, so they are somewhat confused….Could it be God? :)
Josh sent a text this evening that David was given a dose of Gabapentin and Insulin at 9:45 pm, I’ll try to ask tomorrow why he was given them. He had Dilaudid (pain killer) at noon, and did not take it again until 6:15. He’s allowed to take it every 2 hours but doesn’t want to get hooked on the pain meds.
Hang in there brother, miss you already at work. God bless you and your family during your fight, we are praying for you.
