The home stretch.
Today has been a good day. Jack's labs came back with all normal levels, he will open both eyes and give you a look like, "i feel funny. what is this stuff on my head? where am i?". He had the IV fluids removed a few hours ago and the wound dressings will be coming off tomorrow. He is no longer hooked to any lines or monitors. We are starting to see Jack stay awake and alert for longer periods in between the medication induced sleep sessions. Stefanie and I are anxious, curious and nervous all at the same time to see how his beautiful little scalp looks. After the wound dressings are removed the doctor will remove the drain line from Jack's scalp and then he will be fitted for his new................helmet.
The latest style in London and Paris include the uber fashionable helmet! No late winter/early spring wardrobe would be complete without a beautiful helmet. He will wear his new accessory approximately 3-4 months for 20-24 hours a day. My dreams of a football player son have finally come true. And it only took 8.5 months!!! I am a very proud father!
I need to thank all who have come by to visit, and a big thank you to everyone who has given a thought to Jack, Stefanie and I as we continue trudging along the recovery path. Ok, here is the hippie in me, I love all of the positive vibes that came from everyone thinking about us. You are all wonderful people!!
