To say this least, this was not the trip we had planned. After waiting in the waiting room with Jeret and Zack for a couple of hours, I decided to take them back to Disneyland. We tried to have fun, with the worries of Brevin weighing us down. I took over for Clint Thurs night and he took the boys back to the park. Then Friday Clint took the boys. Then my brother and sister-in-law showed up Friday afternoon(thank goodness, they totally saved this trip for the 2 little guys, and helped in ways I didn't even think of). They took Zack and Jeret for us on Saturday(which I think they had more fun with them then with mom or dad).
Brevin was released Saturday afternoon. We got him back to the hotel and just let him rest. He wanted so badly to go see the fireworks(much to my dismay and worries), so we drove him over and got a wheelchair. Got there just in time to see the fireworks(which he really enjoyed). Then we took the bullet train over to downtown Disney where he found a fun Lego set(which has totally occupied his days at home). Then we got him back to the hotel. Well, I think we let him do too much because he was so sick the next day. I thought we were going to have to go back to the hospital. But we go some meds in him and he decide we should just get to Uncle Duke's house. To my brother drove us to their place in Visalia. On the way we hit some traffic, so Brev ended up losing his breakfast on the side of the road. We finally made it though. Aunt Morghan made him some awesome soup and he started feeling so much better. We spent the night there and came home Monday. He is getting more strength each day and has been grateful for everyone's well wishes.
It was quit the trip. Although it wasn't what we planned, we have so much to be grateful for. Grateful that he didn't have to have surgery, priesthood blessings, answered prayers, patient boys that never complained when waiting to find out about Brevin, or going back and forth to the hospital, for Duke and Morghan(who is pregnant with twins), for phone calls, visits from friends, good doctors, etc... We truly have been blessed during this time.
We did manage a few pictures. The first was of Zack and Jeret in front of the castle, the second was in the waiting room at the ER. They were practicing their bubble blowing. The last is Brevin on his last day at the hospital. He was actually able to smile at this point.
