Progress, But Long Night

Henry and Tara are resting in their own room on the oncology floor after a long night in the ER. Tara said that Henry was a delight, offering the nurses his Hershey's Kisses.
He'll continue to get tests and medicines to help diagnose and reduce his swelling. For now, they are comforted to be in a familiar, albeit medical, setting, attended to by the staff we've grown to trust.
I'm heading down to relieve Tara after leaving the girls with their grandmother. Hopefully we'll get to the root of the issue soon.

Bryan and Tara,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I'm sure there's some comfort in being at Hopkins with all the specialists right there. Hope Henry's swelling decreases and you get to return home soon. Our love to you, Henry, Anna and Sophie.....Bob and Debbie
