Jared was moved to a regular room yesterday afternoon. It is great to be able to be with him now. He is mostly sleeping, but will wake up every little bit and talk to me.
His head and neck are still hurting, thanfully he has continual dose of pain medication. The nurse told him that the 2nd and 3rd day are the worst for pain and then it starts to lessen up. But, the nausea has gone away and he is able to eat a little bit, some jello, applesauce and a banana. He is very happy about that.
He had an MRI early this morning and the Dr. showed us the results and it looks really good. There is no evidence of the tumor anymore and his brain stem has moved back to it's regular place and shape.
The Dr. wants him to try to get up and move around today. Jared is really hoping to get a shower today. We will do it little by little, right now he is sitting up and then we will try to get him to a chair then try to walk and so on... He just has to take it slow and monitor his dizziness.
He sat up for a few minutes and read the sports page. He can't stand to miss a day of the sports page. He is happy to hear about the Aggies making it to a bowl game. It's good to see him do some of his normal things.
I hope to have more to post this evening. We are defintely feeling your prayers. Thank you.
