Brandon needs prayers again.. Coming HOME!

[Catty1]

Poor Brandon...I've not had an MRI, but know of people who can't tolerate it...and some who are fine.

Good news on no tumours!

I wonder if the nausea was just a result of where the surgery was?

Huge prayers again that he feels better soon, and that the cause of this nausea can be pinpointed.

I hope that Brandon is stable and well before you have to go back to work, Laura!

Ok, they are saying the nausea and headache now are a result of the surgery but he should start feeling better in a few days. Sis said he had a rough night last night and a really rough day today..

Poor dear Brandon. Prayers he feels well VERY soon!!

Prayers and gentle {{{{hugs}}}} to Brandon.

Do you think sending the link to this thread to your sis would be an idea? Or copying and pasting the posts? Names aren't needed - just wondered if hearing from people he doesn't know might be a comfort and support to him.

I really hope he starts feeling better soon.

I've not had an MRI either but I've heard that it really can test your nerves. I'm sorry that Brandon has had that to deal with on top of everything else. It's good news, though, that the drs. feel the nausea and headache are due to the surgery, which makes sense, I guess. Prayers are unceasing here and we just know that Brandon will continue to improve. What a Christmas party you're all going to have!

Todays update from Sis.. Before taken to the hospital, the tumor on the brain stem had ruptured, that was the reason for the swelling, headaches and nausea. Today was the first time Sis had heard it had ruptured... That can NOT be good!

The doctor told his Mom today that his brain is swelling again (as expected after surgery) but has not stopped, nor responding to the medication and the reason the pain and nausea has not stopped. They changed his medication to try to get the swelling to stop and go down, if there is no improvement by the end of today, he will have to be put back in ICU. He has been through SO much in this last week that it scares me!

Poor Brandon, and his mom!

I hope the medication starts to work, just so he can feel more comfortable.

Prayers for Brandon.

Oh my gosh, that poor guy! I really hope they can find something to make the swelling go down and that he will get better.

Prayers being said for Brandon and his family.

That poor guy is going thru sooo much! Prayers that he is soon feeling better and on the road to recovery. Hopefully - no more surprises for his Mom too.

I can understand him being upset with the MRI. I've had many, and tho they never bothered me, I can fully understand how some people have a problem tolerating them.

Such sad news that Brandon is not feeling better yet. Many more prayers coming.
