Mom and Dad were literally snowed out of Baltimore City today - only emergency vehicles were allowed to go within the city limit - so no baby visits.

Ms Tenley is status quo today...not much different going on with her.

Mr Will, on the other hand, is definitely having a rough day. His breathing is not going well (even though he's on the assisted ventilator) and he started having frequent convulsions. Due to this, they increased his Phenobar (seizure medicine) and are in the process of doing a 24 hour EEG test for tracking any potential seizures. Since increasing the Phenobar, the convulsions have reduced but have not completely subsided. When they took his central line out, they found traces of the Staph Infection still so he will continue on with the antibiotic he was originally on and then they added another. Lastly, they completed a spinal tap on the little guy this afternoon (the procedure went well) for the purpose of collecting a spinal fluid sample to check for traces of infection. The test results will take approximately two days.
