Very little tee tee overnight. This is very worrisome. Still hoping. You looked very swollen today. You went to CT and mommy and daddy consulted with all the doctors afterward. We were hoping it wouldn't be as bad as they said in the beginning....but it was actually worse. It was discovered that your brainstem was being compressed....ahhhh...that's why there was so much trouble with the blood pressure and now other things are happening because of this. We have been noticing a downward trend in vital signs. We are still hopeful though. All we can do is pray. You are on every medicine possible and there is nothing left to give. We love you very much.
