Day 5

And he sleeps...... Sleep is good. Some people say that babies grow while they are sleeping. I pray that it is the same for healing. Adam has always been able to sleep through anything. He had to with three older siblings at home. I have always believed that he was a beautiful child and when he sleeps he has the sweetest expression. Could you tell that I'm just a little bit partial to this special young man?

Things just seem to be going so fast. My mind is in a whirlwind with all the information that we've been given. I am totally amazed with Adam and how he is taking in all of this and not letting this get him out-of-sorts. My new word to describe him is resilient----the ability to bend and not break.

Adam has had quite a bit of company. Of course lots of family have been here. He had four or five of his guy friends come on Friday with their parents. On Saturday, four of the girls from school came to see him. On Sunday he got another four hour pass and went to the movies with Aaron, Dan, Talia, and Jared. He said that he liked the movie (Transporter 3) but I think that he liked getting out of the hospital for a few hours.

Lots of things will be going on the next few days. PET scan is scheduled for Monday. We will know more after that is done and we have the results. As his mom, I have to say that in some ways it will be good to have more answers than questions. I guess my attitude is that if we know exactly what we are going to have to deal with then we can do it.

I love my son and it is hard to see him going through this but we will get through together!
