Update 4/15

Today Jack walked for the first time. He was standing on it yesterday, but said it hurt. Today he is walking on it. He is favoring the leg and walking a bit funny but is doing well. He shows discomfort when you pull his paints down or up. He doesn't want anyone to touch it. If you carry him it hurts him also. The doctor said no rough housing or major activity for 2 to 4 weeks. I think that is going to be difficult. The doctor said that is how many times the incision gets riped open.
Noah is still sick. The fever seems to go down and he feels a bit better, but then spikes. It was 103 in the middle of the night. He was throwing up and having diarrhea yesterday but hasn't today. Hopefully he is on the mend.

Thanks to all of you who emailed or called. It helps to know people care and they are praying and thinking of the boys. It makes all this easier to have support.
We now just pray we get answers from this test and that both boys start getting back to normal.

I also wanted people to know if you click on the link for Charity for Children(the link is on the left side of the blog page) you can see Jack's story. There is a place over on the right side of the page of the Charity for Children website, titled Jacks story. If you click on it it tells you how Charity for Children helped us and a picture of Jack. The letter I wrote starts out telling a little about Jack and what we have been through. I would like to say again that this is such a worthy Charity to donate to. If you find it in your heart to donate you can make the donation in Jack's name. I also encourage anyone who wants to know more about mitochondrial disease to check out the link on the left of Jacks blog page for the united mitochondrial disease foundation.
