Hospital stay...

Alex has spent the last 24 hours at Primary Children's Hospital. He had some increased headaches and nausea along with a high fever. They did an MRI which was going to happen on Thursday anyway. It looks like there is some decrease in the size of the tumor itself but the ventricles in the brain are enlarged,  causing pressure resulting in the headaches and nausea. He has been on a hefty dose of steroids which has helped relieved some pressure and antibiotics that have taken care of the fever. Today he feels much better and we are just waiting to be released which could be soon or not. You never know what to expect here.
