Friday morning downer

Well it's 6:30 on a Friday morning. Mike has just called to say good morning and update me on his night. Not good. He has only had a couple of hours sleep. He has been trying to drink, but the water keeps coming back down his nose, so at 4:00 this morning they put him back onto IV fluids. I spoke to Dr A yesterday and I know they are searching for answers to his problem, but at the moment none of the puzzle pieces seem to want to fit together. The lumbar puncture didn't happen yesterday, Dr P wanted to wait until they had received the MRI report of his brain, he didn't want to do an invasive procedure if the answer could be found another way. Needless to say the report didn't arrive to my knowledge and so it will probably happen today.

We've just got to try and stay positive.
