Wednesday, March 11th

A CT Scan was done at 2:00am, and everything looked good. By 2:00pm Tim's left eye was beginning to swell from the trauma of the surgery. His brain pressure was in the 30's. Tim began running a fever of 103 degrees. The nurses uncovered much of his body and began cooling him off. The doctor unwrapped the bandage on Tim's head, and left it off. The less pressure on his brain, the better. His brain pressure dropped to the 20's.
