26 Apr 26: Weslee Update

Sleepy son

Reminder: Weslee fell down the stairs during a seizure on Apr 24. I took him to the Emergency Dept as soon as I could.

After comprehensive scans, we learn:

1. Shunt (for his brain bleed) and VNS are still where they are supposed to be.

2. Four small fractures in his spine.

3. Need to follow up with spine specialist.

5. He is very lucky. Could have been MUCH worse.

He has had a continuous nasty headache ever since. The pain is supposed to last for a while... while he heals.

He takes as much acetameniphen as is prescribed on the bottle. It only takes the edge off. On Monday, will make some calls to get him something stronger.

My sweet boy is in so much pain, in his head and back. Hurts to move into a sitting position. Hurts to move at all.
