Jacob had another night last night of having trouble getting to sleep, so finally after midnight, I decided to do something I usually would not do, I let him sleep with me in bed. It went pretty well, but then Josh woke me up at 5 am saying he couldn't breath. Luckily, he did not wake Jacob up, but my luck did not last. Jacob decided he was ready to get up at 5:30 am. So needless to say I had another night of lack of sleep. Oh Well, just getting prepared I guess. I did get Jacob to finally go back to sleep at about 7:30, only to have to wake him up before 8 so he could get his medicine before the cut off time. He was not too happy that I wouldn't let him eat anything, but did pretty good when we got to the hospital. Got him checked in and in his gown for the FMRI, and he was quickly out with anesthesia.
When he came out he did not want to wake up, so they made us wake him up, which did not make him happy. It took 2 apple juice and some animal crackers and to get him away from the people who put him into that situation to get him to calm down. All in all the screaming lasted about 10 minutes or so. We then got him some lunch (grilled cheese) and he was much happier to finish the rest of the appointments. By the time everyone had seen him though, he was one tired dude and fell asleep in the car on the way back to our home base.
Here's hoping you get a good night's rest tonight and praying for a safe and successful surgery for Jacob tomorrow. Sending you much love and support.
