Loooooooong, exhausting, emotional day.......
Amanda was sent for a CT scan. The results came back abnormal, showing lots of fluid and a mass of some sort. She then went to MRI. Amanda is a rockstart patient! She laid still for the MRI and didn't make a peep.
The neurosurgeon was surprised that she didn't have any other symptoms besides the occasional headache.
We don't really know what tomorrow will bring. It is basically our first step along this crazy path.
No pain today so that was good; she is mostly sad that she is 'missing' Halloween and she doesn't understand why she has to be at the hospital. She was asleep when Collin arrived tonight and I left shortly there after. My dear friend Nicole had the kids while we did the hospital trade-off and my friend Sandee is here now (from AZ) to hold down the fort during this initial madness.

I'll try to figure out the internet at the hospital so I can update more.
Thanks for all your prayers and well wishes!

I'm definitely sending prayers your way. Between this and a positive result for the H1N1, I should probably send some chocolate, too. Do you have a Q20? If not you should pick one up ... they're a ton of fun and really help pass the time.

Hang in there. You're in my thoughts!!
