Update on Bear: starting Tuesday Bear started experiencing severe pain and as the week went on it got worse. He lost his appetite, couldn’t drink fluids, and became extremely weak. He called Ben yesterday around noon and said he wanted to go to the ER, so we took him to cal cam. They started an IV with fluids and pain meds, and took him for a CT. Because he stopped taking steroids on Monday the swelling in the brain increased which increased the pain. The doctor at cal cam spoke to the surgeon at MD and decided to put him back on the steroids. He was released around 6:30 and is at home resting and feeling much better! We will go to MD Monday for his post op appointment with his neurosurgeon. Thanks again for all the support and prayers! Keep them coming!
