Hi All.

It has been a very nerve-racking day. I waited and waited but did not hear anything until I called my other brother about 6:30 this evening. (My parents are staying with Bryan's sister, Laurie.)
Bryan has meningitis. They do not know if is the bacterial or viral kind yet until they get the results of culturing the spinal fluid. But he is being treated for both at this time. (I don't know if you can treat the viral kind - perhaps jus the syptoms? ) He has improved some today - has been moved to the Intermediate ICU and they are hoping that he will move to a regular room before the night is out because he is stable. He has to get rid of the sore neck and rash. I got a message from my brother, Mike - Bryan's dad - and he said that "Today is better than yesterday. But to say that we are cautiously optimistic may be too 'generous'". I hope that that is a fatigued father speaking. I mean, how could you NOT be cautiously optimistic??? To be anything else is to think the very worst!!!
I thank you so much for your out pouring of prayers and good wishes for my Dear Nephew. It is overwhelming to me.
Please continue to keep Bryan, his family, and his doctors in your prayers and good thoughts.

I will continue to update you all as soon I know more...

Thank you all again. It means so very much to me...

Beth

Continued prayers and good thoughts on the way for your nephew and his family, Beth. Poor little guy. Tons of pixie dust on the way as well. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Best wishes.

Take care Beth. This must be extremely stressful on you.

Oh my gosh, Beth, I just now saw this post. Of course Bryan is in my prayers!!!

Oh Beth, I had no idea that your nephew was so sick.

My neighbor's daughter has this years ago. It was very frightening. She fully recovered.

It sounds like he's in a wonderful facility. Add me to the list of those praying for his recovery.

 

[CathyCanada]

Oh Beth, I was afraid that was what it might be. Hoping and praying that it IS the viral and he will be on the mend soon.
Hugs,

Exactly 3 years ago my son was also in the ICU....similar symptoms to your nephew....and lengthy time to make a diagnosis....but the problem was a blood clot between his liver and small intestine. We also had wonderful doctors at Hasbro Children's Hospital and they devised a treatment plan for a condition unknown for a healthy 8 year-old boy.

He had many people praying for him as you do for your nephew....and my wish is that he has the same complete recovery as my son did.
