Elias had to go to the hospital...

Wow...I am speechless...Where do I begin? Elias came to the hospital yesterday morning because after seeing his pediatrician for high fevers and a bulging fontanel, she thought it best that we we take him to the ER to get a spinal tap to rule out meningitis. (a bulging soft spot can be a sign of meningitis) THANK THE LORD its not meningitis. They did a spinal tap in the ER and the fluid came back negative. They took lots of blood for tests and cultures as well. So far, other than some dehydration and two bad ear infections, thats all that they have found to be wrong. He did have a cat scan of his head in the ER and one radiologist said he might have some issues with the veins in his head..so..They went ahead and consulted a neurologist to take a look at the results and assess Elias, and decide whether he needs an MRI or not. He is on IV antibiotics now for the ear infections and any other infections he may have. We were just told we have to be here at least another day to wait on the results of the blood cultures and to continue to try and figure out the reasons for Elias' bulging fontanel..
PRAYER REQUESTS:
-that the neuro doc doesn't see anything significant and Elias wont have to get an MRI (he will have to be sedated for this)
-that Elias gets some sleep...He did not sleep well last night and he obviously is not taking any of his naps well either.
-for patients and strength for Mathew and Me. Anyone who has had a child in a hospital can relate, it is THE SINGLE MOST HARDEST THING I HAVE EVER HAD TO GO THROUGH! (being a nurse doesn't water it down either). Every time he has to get a blood draw, or be held down, or whatever, my heart hurts so bad. My soul seriously aches..
-and last request, that we are able to leave and go home tomorrow.
Thank you all for praying for us. We know God is THE Great Physician and its not a coincidence that all the tests are coming back ok, God is working! More updates to come...
