I haven't updated in a few days, things have been a little crazier than normal with Thanksgiving. I am almost ready for things to be normal around here, whatever normal is anyway.
Marcus has been up and down in his progress for the last few days starting with an infection in his eye. He has nerve damage so his left eye doesn't close making him prone to eye infections apparently. Then his left lung collapsed, due to the fact that he is always laying on his left side, so of course he was requiring more oxygen for that. He was scheduled for surgery on Monday, to close his eye a little more, however all that came to a screeching halt today. He has gotten very sick, we are not sure if it is due to an infection or the damage his brain has sustained from the hydrocephalus. He is no longer able to breathe on his own, as of now he is only on hte CPAP, but if he gets any worse they will have to intubate him. We have found out the hard way that things can go from bad to worse with no warning at all so we are on pins and needles right now. We will not get the results back from the cultures until Tuesday and that seems so far away right now.
