We all have been down this road many times. You get a good blog then a bad day comes and we report a minor (or sometimes major) setback.
7:45 found him sleeping and what I figured was a fever since he was uncovered. We didn't see anyone to discuss it with so we left and returned at 10:00 to see him before his PT visit and we found him yet again sleeping, this time covered with 2 blankets and still no contact with nurses.
We headed to WalMart for the "Mike n Ike's" he wanted last night. Returned back at 11:20 to find the nurse finally in there and Justin in low spirits and clearly not feeling well. Fever at 101.2, lots of congestion that they just couldn't get up and he couldn't get coughed up. He said he was just down right not feeling good.
PT decided to do bed exercises and Justin finally said he wanted to be in his chair but that still found him hurting in neck and left shoulder, still had congestion and got nausea and a headache. He got Tylenol for fever, nausea meds and pain meds. I finally convinced him to eat some of his lunch that was about an hour cold and he ate about half of it.
He wasn't really asleep but semi-dozing around 2:00 so we decided to head to housing to quick zap some lunch. I hope our next visit will give us something better to report.
WE love you all and ask you to continue to pray.

Hi there. We hope Justin's fever breaks so he will feel better. We know it worries you guys as it does all of us, but hang in there and we pray (and believe) that things will get much better. Can't wait until ya'll talk with the doctors tomorrow. Give Justin, Robyn and Brooke a hug for us. Joe & Betty
