New Jason Update

I am Kerri's mom doing another update. When she got to the hospital, Jason was much sicker than she realized. He coughed quite a bit most of the night. We are not sure if it is asthma or if it is heading into pneumonia. He also is running a fever and is in a lot of pain at the surgery site because of the coughing. They will be doing a chest x-ray later. They are putting him on an antibiotic and starting breathing treatments, but again, none of that has started. The hospital is full, and they are very slow at inititating new medications and treatments. Kerri really feels the need to be at the hospital and be an active advocate for Jason's care. I am feeling somewhat better, but am unable to be with the children yet. Thank you for your prayers for all of us.

I just wanted to leave a note to say that we are thinking of you all. I check several times a day for updates. I saw that no one has commented, and I know how lonely it can feel when you are doing the deep medical stuff. Hugs and prayers from a MOMYS friend ;o)
