slightly less on the seizures

Seizure activity does show signs of lessening since he got his dose of the stronger med but still seeing some spikes. Vitals are still good and his temp was below 100 most of today and his arms and hands felt normal. Still waiting to see if there was any indication on cause of blood infection, results not definite yet. His skin was checked and looks good. Our UCLA and ICU team both agreed that they need to try to stop the seizures in order to see how Mark can respond without them. EEG does show baseline brain activity which is why they're trying so hard to control the seizures so he can respond. Today they also put in a central line which will be more comfortable for him rather than having to stick him for meds and blood draws. He will keep the EEG on all night so they can monitor throughout the evening. Mark still looks good, it seriously just looks like he is sleeping (with lots of tubes). He looks totally relaxed and his coloring looks great. He's definitely the most handsome patient in the ICU! Still waiting for him to wake up and start cracking jokes :)
