Saturday July 30

Tom was running a fever of 101.4 tonight.  They are doing more blood cultures to see if it is an infection. 

He still does not tolerate clamping the drain in his head, so they have stopped trying, because it is causing to much stress on him.  Tomorrow they will do a CT scan to map the path for the shunt. 

The shunt will be placed on Monday at 8 AM.

Nancy and two of her sons visited the specialty hospital that Tom will move to when he is stable enough to move.  It was a nice place, with great care, but it is a very hard realization that he would be moved there next, and not just wake up one of these days and come home.

Please continue to pray for healing!  Please pray that he would respond better each day.

Please continue to pray for wisdom for the doctors and family as to the next step. Please pray for peace with this decision.

Please pray for the fever to be taken care of, and for the shunt placement on Monday to go well.

Thanks again for lifting us up in prayer,

Brenna
