Today's Update -Sunday 12/4 4:30pm

Today has been a day of status quo. Ryan has had a relatively good day. The pressure in his head has remained within reasonable numbers - between 8 and 15 without medication. He has developed what may be a bit of pneumonia - but we were expecting this due to the time on the ventilator. The swelling on his brain stem has remained the same - we're thankful it's not worse, but look forward to the day when they tell us it's less. Dr. Beemer has indicated it will take a long long time for this swelling to go down, and will take weeks and weeks before they can consider replacing the bone flap in his skull. He said "the crisis is over (long pause) for now."
He is still critical and in very delicate condition and has his own nurse monitoring him 24/7.

We so appreciate the beautiful thoughts and support, love and prayers you are sending our way. Thank you to all for your willingness to take care of any needs we may have. It has really taken a load off our minds knowing we can call on you when needed.

With much much love and gratitude,
The Lindroth's
