Back to the highest dose of steroids - 24mg

Early results from the MRI are in - no change from late July. I've got the CD in my hand and going to run it over to FedEx to overnight it up to the courier service in Rochester. That way, our neurologist at Mayo Clinic can review it hopefully as early as tomorrow afternoon.

Just learned that they upped the steroid dose to 24mg/day - the highest dose you can get. Apparently the doctors are with us in thinking that drastic measures need to be taken to get him back responding to us and hopefully coming back around.

He's eating a bit today, and going to stick to soft foods for the time being.
