Update from Steve, Wednesday, 5/14 @ 11:16 p.m.

Dear Friends,

Here are some updates from Michael:

1. Last night, an ultrasound was done and they are waiting for results.
2. A chest X-ray was taken this morning at 5:30 a.m.
3. At 8:15 a.m., an MRI was conducted and they are waiting for results.
4. Melissa’s fever was at its lowest point at 5:00 a.m. this morning (36.9° C or 98.4° F). at 7:20 a.m. it was back up to 38° C or 100.4° F.
5. Feeding was stopped at 2:00 a.m. in preparation for the MRI and resumed after 10:00 a.m.
6. Melissa’s heart rate after 12:30 a.m. was between 108 and 120. That’s a great improvement considering that the day before it was above 130 and last night reached 170.
7. G-tube is scheduled for some time next week depending on the fever and her physical condition.
8. Currently, doctors are suspecting the fever is primarily caused by the brain, called central fever, which controls the body system function. This is damaged because of the brain injury. So, we need to pray for healing of the brain.

Notes:
1. Please pray for Marlene and Michael for strength and guidance as they continue to face challenges.
2. Thank God for Marlene and Michael's unwavering faith in God and His healing power.

Please keep praying for the entire Yu family.

Thanks,
Steve
