CT scan

Dr came in this morning and ordered a CT scan of Trent's vessels in his neck. He just feels that it's wise to check them because with the kind of force he sustained, sometimes a part of a vessel can sheer off, like a flap, and can cause blood clots, which of course would not be good headed to the brain! So he'll have that done this afternoon.  They did stop the feedings (he still has the tube), and he's been eating very slowly but surely. Got one pancake and about 1/3 of the scrambled eggs in so far today. We reallllly want to go home today!!!
