update / thank you

Jack just got home a half an hour ago. They wanted to keep him because this morning he was not doing well. He was not eating and drinking and was throwing up and just lying around. Once they gave him some anti nausea medication he started to drink. He did not sleep well and we convinced them to let him go. The medication should last eight hours. After that if he starts throwing up or not eating or drinking again then we will not have to take any chances because of the disease and possible bleeding and go right to the ER. As far as the surgery he had the adenoids and tonsils taken out. He did have a hard time coming out of the anesthesia, but not to horrible and they expected it a little due to the disease. Please pray he doesn't keep up with the GI stuff when the medication wears off. He was crying all morning and has really been down and out. We gave him a bath and he is resting and acting OK right at this moment. He slept very poor and is having a lot of pain throat and legs. He is experiencing a lot of fatigue and his mito stuff is acting up probably because of the stress of the procedure and his endurance issues. We just ask everyone keep him in your prayers for the next week or so. He will have to lay low and he is at risk of infection.

We also want to thank those of you who called or emailed to see how Jack was. It means the world to us.
