The feeding tube was put in correctly, yay!
It's still pretty sad to see how much he is storming. They say that's very common with brain injuries(have I said that before? I can't remember, guess I should go back and read what I've written) The storming is what makes him move around a lot and he sweats like he's been running a race. It can last anywhere from a few days to weeks, and he is on a medicine to try and control it.
His brother's came and visited him tonight. Zane can be like a little whirlwind, but he can also be calm, even if it's only for a few minutes at a time. He doesn't really understand everything that is going on with Jake(don't think any of us do), but my gosh, his prayers are sweet! McCall's prayers are sweet as well. The faith and belief of a child is awesome. We talked a little with them about not always having our prayers answered the way we want them. No matter what, I know for sure that Heavenly Father loves us all. Especially when life gets tough.
Everyone that sees Jake tell us what a beautiful boy he is.
You and Derick and sooo strong and good examples to your boys! :) I love you all soooo much! I am glad I have had the opportunity to spend sooo much time with them these past couple weeks! Not under the circumstances but I love being with them no matter what! They are so fun to watch when they play together! :) I love you! Thank you for your great example and faith! Love you!

ReplyDeleteYou and Derick made some darling boys who are so well behaved. What great parents and examples you two are for them. We sure miss seeing all your faces at home. Keep fighting little Jake, we know you can do it! Keep your strength Ragnhild and Derick and keep believing in the power of prayer. We love and miss you all.

I want to tell you how cute Isabella was last night during our prayer about Jake....anyway, I am praying and crying of course, Izzy looks at me and says "mom, why are you crying? You should be happy, Jake's brain will heal mom and he will come back home". Kids are so in tune, we must believe in them. I love you all
