MRI Update

Noah was taken down for an MRI around 1pm today. Will take a few hours to complete, and then maybe 24-48hrs for results. Julie and Ethan talked to the neuro-team, and here are some notes I took from that conversation, accurately or not, but gives a little summary.

There was an enzyme that was off the charts yesterday that has dropped 50% from what it was. It is also a normal occurance in newborns. It seems Noahs brain that supports his vital organs and other "involuntary" functions is working, ie. heart, kidney, lungs, stomach, etc... There seems to be another part that is not functioning, ie. eyes, arms, legs, pain stimuli, etc...
It could almost be related to a coma, in how he is reacting. There has not been a cause, nor a solution as of yet. Hopefully the MRI results will be able to give more conclusive results, as well as possible avenues to go down for treatments and even possible outcomes of what to expect.

Keep praying. God is still listening. Thank you
