Remember how hard it was for Brady to get an MRI? Turns out once you get the one, if enough is wrong with you, you can get a handful of MRIs a lot easier.
I tease. Kind of.
The hospital ordered another MRI for Brady for Wednesday, and he was bumped until this morning. He had about a one minute warning before he had to quickly get up, dressed, and was taken down. It wasn’t a long scan like we had been told earlier it would be, so he texted me around 9:30 and said he was ready for company! Woohoo! I left within a couple of minutes, grabbed some coffee for us, and made it to the hospital about a half hour later than usual. That is not a lot of lost time at all!
The first thing Brady told me about was this.
His MRI this morning had been a contrast MRI. He had an IV port in his arm since Wednesday morning, so the bandaid is from that coming up. His MRI this morning had been a contrast MRI, so when they pushed the contrast through the port, some of it went interstitial, escaped his vein, and ended up in his muscle. Brady’s a decently muscly guy but his forearms aren’t this big! Except now, the one is, lol!
Luckily, it isn’t causing any pain 🙂 More of an annoyance than anything. They say it’ll just dissipate over time. The same thing they say about the blood clot thats still hanging out in his lungs (barf) but a little less scary.
Whats one more weird medical thing, right? Whats one more thing to think about?
I tease. Kind of. I am SO grateful for Brady’s positive outlook on just about everything. The recent positive days definitely help, but the prayer support is no doubt the biggest thing!! We are SO grateful for our supportive people from all over! Thank you for continuing to be in our corner and support us in all the different ways you do.
Last note of the day, Brady’s student PT is done today. He was an amazing part of our team, and we are both VERY sad to see him go! Good luck, Pete! You are absolutely in the right field!! Keep doing exactly what you’re doing!
