Tuesday....April 13th...2010

9 am EDT....We are at the big main hospital in Tampa...

Linda is quite uncomfortable with no sleep..nothing to eat since last night.... nausea.... headache...sweating profusely due to the cough and congestion from the upper respiratory infection....etc...etc.

They have assigned a primary physician to her but she is on her rounds and should arrive soon...so meds can be administered. This physician will also order the MRI......so who knows when that is....

They are concerned that these dilated ventricles in the brain may be tumor caused..so that is the reason for the MRI....this has Linda freaked a bit....particularly with some discomfort in her arms and legs....particularly on the left side.....we are keeping the faith that this is about nothing other than the nasty respiratory infection....

More later....
