Mommy finally gets to change your diapers for you. This was the highlight of the day for me. I pray and know that I will get to carry you and bring you home one day.

Shi Kang Dearest,

Today you went for the MRI scan of your brain and neck. This is to determine if there's any abnormity in those areas... doctors have advised that the risk in this procedure is an allergic reaction to the dye which will be injected into your body.

You were sedated for this procedure and after yesterday's episode on the muscle biopsy, mommy chose not to be there for the MRI. The doctors and nurses assured that they will take good care of you. Forgive mommy for not being there with you for the MRI scan.

You did not open your eyes today because you were very sleepy due to the sedation. Thank God that the MRI procedure went well.

Updates for today:

- your weight went up from 2.110kg to 2.115kg

- your jaundice level has gone down from 141 to 116 and you are no longer under the photo light

- you are still on the long line drip and have not started feeds since your stomach is still bloated and the aspirates shows high level of saliva and some dirt.

- the physitherapist has started physio on your chest to strengthen your chest muscles

Prayers for today:

- you will be able to breath on your own soon

- fight off any infections

- you will be able to restart on tube feeding soon

- your muscles will become stronger

- God's mercy to be on you.
