    Hey all. My family could use your thoughts and prayers. My son, 23, who survived an auto accident in his senior year in high school (he was the passenger, 13 days in a coma, 7 months of physical, speech, occupational therapy).........and who was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis his freshman year in college, has been treated with an infusion of Tysabri (for the MS) every 4 weeks, is now in the hospital. He's been in there since Saturday, and his diagnosis is yet unknown. We do know that he had a high fever and many tests have been run to rule out (or in) various types of infections. He does have increased brain lesions and is currently paralyzed on his right side. It is not known if this is temporary or permanent.

    If any of you can find the time, your thoughts and/or prayers would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks very much!

    Mark
