Dad's temperature is down to normal this morning! All the way down to 97. Wow. Thank you all for your prayers! God is so good. Dad also had a big bowel movement this morning (TMI again, sorry!), which was good news. Hopefully that, plus the extra liters of water that they're feeding him, will help him to digest that eggnog of his.
The brain swelling is still quite serious. They haven't been able to close the brain drain for more than about a minute still. We had really hoped that today would be the end of the swelling; we'll have to wait & see what the doctor says about it. Please please please continue prayers that the swelling will decrease with no neural deficit!!!
Thanks so much, God bless you all.
