Quick Update

Mason has regained the use of his right arm. What the doctors think is that he had a seizure with Todd's paralysis (not sure if I spelled that right). This means that he had short term paralysis after a seizure. We spent most of the morning trying to get the Wichita sedation team to agree to sedate him for an EEG and MRI. They have finally agreed but it is too late today to do it. So, tentatively it will start at 11 am tomorrow. Mason has come around and is in better spirits - eating a little and even laughing a couple of times. He is still very tired which can either be from the seizure or the fact that they bugged him until 3:30 in the morning. Either way, he is returning to our Mason. Please pray that the results of the EEG and MRI are promising and this was a one time event. Mason does seem to be twitching or having muscle spasms randomly. Or maybe it is just my heightened sense of awarement. I just want to get the tests done so I can have piece of mind or at least a path. Please also pray that Mason is accepting of the doctors and nurses. The poor baby says "all done" when they come to see him. Hopefully, we will have a restful night - as much that can be had in a hospital - and be able to come home tomorrow.
