Today I’m honored to write at Not Alone, a new site of parents writing for other parents in the special needs world. I wrote about last week in ICU and facing pain. Or sometimes running away from it.
We are hoping to go home today although we are returning with Calvin in a very different state than when we entered the hospital over three weeks ago. He is now breathing great but his neuro-status has not improved. Most of the time his face is quivering and contorting and his body cannot stop the tremors. Nobody knows why. Last night there were a few moments when I felt I could reach him. Please pray for healing.
Today’s post is When the Pain Is Too Much To Bear.

I hope you are all home now. Praying that Calvin’s neuro status imroves, and he gets back to his baseline. I hope his increased seizures are just secondary to the stress on his body, from the surgery and pain. I know that any stress on the body of a seizure-prone kiddo can cause their neurological state to change significantly. Continued prayers for your sweet boy…..and you too!
Kara, I can only imagine the mixed emotions. Praising the Lord with you that Calvin can go home, and we’ll be praying for comfort and peace and healing for him. We love you guys!
