MRI down and now waiting on tomorrow.....

The MRI went very well this morning.  It was an early, early morning and once we arrived, we waited for over 30 minutes to be called back.  While Amanda was nervous about the scans and shed the anticipated tears, she did a great job with the whole process.

The scans this morning were only of the brain instead of a full spine and brain scan. Because of that, the actual MRI did not take very long.  Our favorite charge nurse was in recovery and as always, it was great to see a familiar, friendly face.  Amanda came out of the anesthesia very well and we were on our way home by 9:30!   Once again, the people at Dell were amazing and took very good care of all of us. 

Thank you for all of the messages of encouragement and prayers for our family this morning. Please keep us in your prayers as we wait for and go to tomorrow's appointment.   As I'm sure I have mentioned before, we will find out the results of the MRI and Amanda will receive her antibiotic infusion along with her large dose of Benedryl.  The appointment is at 10:00 and I am very thankful for another early appointment! (Only so I don't have to wake up and wait....)

The rest of our day today will be spent quietly at home.  Tomorrow will be another big day and we are all exhausted from this morning.  I just have to say, getting up at 4:15 in the morning is for the birds!

Philippians 4:4-8
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
 
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
