Hi everyone..... I waited a little while longer to post this time because BJ was waiting on some test results from last week's visit. BJ and I played phone tag most of the week, so I never heard from him about how the visit went. But, I did get to talk to Mrs. Green late last week and she filled me in. BJ had to get another lumbar punture last week because they wanted to take another look at his spinal fluid. Dr. Vaughn urged BJ not to get alarmed by this, it was just to confirm the results from the first test. He got the results this morning and they were good. So, he doesn't have to have another one of those test done until day 200. I know this had to be a big relief for BJ and the family.

They are still trying to figure out the tingling feeling in his legs that I mentioned in the last post. They are going to try to line up a MRI during his visit next week to see if it is possibly a nerve issue. Hopefully, they will get that figured out soon. Everything else looked good at this visit.

Ashley told me that he has been feeling good and doing well. Mrs. Green & Ashley have both mentioned to me that BJ is getting his hair back, which probably makes him feel better too. Hopefully, next week the positive news will continue. I will talk to you then.
