MRI

This morning Brian had a MRI of his brain. Because he is five and not going to sit still in a tube for 45 minutes, it was done with sedation. Brian did well. He is still a little "wobbly" as he would put it, but doing well.  
    Because Brian was getting sedated he could not have anything to eat after dinner last night and nothing but clear liquids throughout the night. This morning he was cut off from clear liquids at 8:00 am. Brian didn't get taken back until almost 11am this morning. He's quite a trooper. We gave him an extra DDAVP pill this morning for his DI to help him through the no drinking thing. I think it helped.

 We are not expecting any surprises from the MRI, but please be praying that nothing has changed. We will probably not hear the results from the scans until Brian's next chemo appointment in three weeks.

Here is a picture of Brian from this morning. He was waiting for his turn to go back and he was getting a bit anxious at this point. We were thankful for the distraction of the Buzz Lightyear car thing in the waiting area, even though Brian is a bit too big for it.  :-)
