Journal entry by Jackie Cavanagh —
Things have been starting to progress in a positive direction! Over the past few days our dad has come off of the EEG, his seizure-levels have started to level out with medications, and he has even been up and doing his physical and occupational therapies! At this point, we are feeling good that the doctor's prediction of seeing hemorrhaging on his CT scan from earlier this week was just from his surgery. He keeps passing his neuro-checks and does not have any headaches (please pray it stays this way) so there has not been a need to do another CT scan at this point in time.
Our dad's angel on earth/Neurosurgeon, Dr. McIver has been amazing. He spent 45 minutes with him today making sure he was comfortable, chatting, doing neuro-checks, and even walking down the hallways (dad walked 100 yards without a walker!)
We are eternally grateful for all of the continued prayers and are praying his days/nights continue to progress in this direction moving forward. Thank you all for sending love- we truly appreciate it more than you know.
