GOOD News!!!

Levi's urination is within normal limits again!  His seizures are finally completely under control!  His blood pressure is stable.  They have gone DOWN a step on the Pentabarbitol (the med keeping him in a coma).  They said if he does well (no seizures, etc) they will go down one to two steps a day.  He is on a very high dose.  It can take up to a week for him to wake up because the medicine stays in the system for a few days even after it is completely off.  However, Levi was awake far longer than he should have been when they were first putting him under, and we think he will surprise them and wake up earlier. 

We believe that we are finally over the hump.  Please join us in praying that he does well and we can go down on the coma meds every day.  This is wonderful news, and we know that the Lord's Hand is on him!
