Thursday Jan. 10th

Good morning!
Logan is laying beside me resting comfortably. They (the nurses) are doing a wonderful job keeping his pain under control.
First of all I have to report that at about 11:30 this morning, Logan turned on the TV and started to cry when he realized he could see the score ticker at the bottom of the screen! He couldn't even see the big E at the top of the eye chart!!!!!!!!! What a blessing!
He had an MRI at 2:30 this morning. I assume this was to establish a baseline for future MRIs. Not sure why they had to wake him up in the middle of the night but they didn't ask for my opinion!
Logan has definitely developed diabetes insipidus. This is from the involovement of the pituitary gland. It is crucial that they stay on top of this. They are constantly monitoring things and drawing labs.
They are giving him steroids to help wih the swelling...
We have not yet seen a doctor today, not sure when but we should be meeting with the nuerossurgeon and the endocrinologist. Anxious! Will be sure to update everyone.
