They moved Brian into a private room yesterday.

He didn't have a good night at all though, in fact no sleep at all. When they put him in this room he had the catheter out, the IV's and all the monitors off, and of course the shunt was out.

He screamed all night in pain cause he couldn't use the bathroom on his own. His nurses tried once to insert a catheter again but were unsuccesful. He fought them every step of the way with screams that would make anyones heart cry.

Finally they had to force one in, it wasn't two minutes passed and Brian let out almost 900cc (over half a catheter bag full) and his pain stopped.

From that point on he had a pleasant day, and we got my foster man back and he was there to see him. That really made Brian happy.

Still no word on the pathology report and its been over a week now. Maybe soon they can figure out why this happened to him with no prior medical problems.

We think he wont get home til after Thanksgiving right now, but hey I have so many people praying for him, anything is possible *smiles* and the prayers are working. He isnt dead ya know?

Well for now that's about it, when I know more will let you all know.

Again thanks.
