Vernon had an MRI this morning, his regular dialysis in the afternoon, and has been running a fever all day. Hopefully some more draining tomorrow will help with the fever. In trying to cool him down, the nurse had removed his cap, and for the first time I saw the shaved hair growing back. He was starting to look like Vernon again! I almost posted a photo, but Chris suggested it might be a bit dramatic for those not used to seeing him in the state. So take it from me, he is looking good…relatively.
And then there were the hiccups…that went on and on. They were pretty funny to see, but an encouraging sign as its the first we have seen him moving in 24 days.

Hi Aunt Mimi…I almost didn’t update tonight as I was very tired, but then Maki said, “You have to. Its called “Day by Day.” So we have him to thank for helping me stay diligent. Thanks always for your prayers. xo
We understand how exhausting it can be. You feel like you are doing “nothing” just being with your loved one, but it is so draining. May the Lord give you strength and peace, and Vernon supernatural healing and a peaceful awakening. Our prayers are with you.

Strength, patience, & faith. My prayers for today.
