The day after

Jacob looked pretty good today, although a bit cranky and tired, but who could blame him.  He woke up shortly after we got to the hospital this morning, and started complaining to us right away in his usual way of kicking at us and grabbing our hands and the nurse even asked us twice if he was in pain, so we explained to her that he was just mad and that was his way of trying to tell us.  He was then moved out of ICU due to the fact that he had a good night and moved into a regular room on a different floor.  He did have to go in for another MRI, but the Dr came and told us that everything looked good, just what they were hoping to see.  Needless to say he was a bit tired and still groggy after all was said and done.  Dr said tomorrow should be better and he should be more awake. Hopefully he will have a good night.
Joshua has having a bit of a rough time the whole day.  He was afraid to go in and see Jacob (I think he thought he was going to be swollen up like the dough boy).  When he finally did, he said he felt better, and was not afraid anymore.  I realized then how much more he knew about all that was happening then I did before.  He is a smart boy and was pretty concerned about his brother.  He later had a bit of a breakdown, but I think that had a little to more to do with being really tired.  I think he will feel much better in the morning.
