One Step Foreword, Two Steps Back

Today was not a very good day...I don't have very many details, so I'll just tell you what I know until I figure it all out tomorrow. I know that Matthew is back to being unresponsive, and he has a machine that completely breathes for him. Like the machine that people with sleep apnea use. He'll open his eyes sometimes, but it is rare. The doctors think he might have cancer on his brainstem, but that is very inconclusive. Nothing is certain. However, tomorrow they are having a radiation doctor from the Good Samaritan Hospital come to look at Matthew, and they might ambulance him to Good Sam's to get radiation. Don't freak out because nothing is for sure, it's all speculation and caution. They would know for sure, but they weren't able to use dye with his MRI yesterday because his kidneys couldn't handle it. Again, don't freak yet because nothing is conclusive, but pray like crazy. I have faith that everything will be fine, but if it is what the doctors are guessing, it's still treatable. And even with this set back, there is still a ton of hope. Today Dr. Williams told my mom that AML patients do really well with radiology and that it can bring them back to responsiveness. Thanks for keeping tabs on T.
