Day #65

Jennifer was moved back to the rehab hospital this evening. David said her blood pressure, heart rate, & breathing all seemed to be doing well.

They took Josiah & Kacyn to see Jennifer today. Josiah had some cars & a truck with him. He was showing them to his mommy. She just watched him. They laid Kacyn on her chest & she started crying. It was heartbreaking, but she knows what's going on & is showing the appropriate emotions.

Yesterday David's sister, Chrissie, got a big belly laugh from Jennifer. She's given several little giggles, but this is the first real laugh.

I'm not quite sure how to explain what's going on with Kacyn's head. It's growing, but he doesn't have a soft spot so it's growing upward instead of out. They are trying to make an appointment for him with a neurologist at the Children's Hospital who is supposed to be the best.

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. There will definitely be a void this Christmas because Jennifer should be with us, but we are thankful that she will no longer be in the hospital.

I'm going to take a break from posting over the holiday unless there is something that needs to be posted.

I hope everyone has a very merry Christmas! Please remember that Jesus is the reason for the season.

Love,
Lynn
