Michael's HSV test came back negative, meaning there is no further infection. His brain still shows inflammation, but medically Vanderbilt can not do anything else for him. He is ready to be released.
The battle now is getting the insurance to pay for a rehabilitation facility. Insurance stinks!!! I am sure that some of you have fought these battles before. I am praying that they will come through today and agree to cover a facility. We are focused on one in Texas near Dad's apartment there. Mom and Dad would be there and Dad could work, this seems like the best option at this point.
We are feeling desperate to get him out of the hospital at this point. It is so hard to see him confused, scared, frustrated.... he needs a place that will work to get him better through multiple forms of therapy. The doctors have not been positive about him regaining 100% of his faculties, but we all know that Michael is one to beat the odds, and that the power of prayer is huge.
Please pray today that we are able to get him into a rehab.
That negative is really refreshing to hear. Glad he's got a safe path to Dallas to. You guys are really knocking it out.
