We had a good night. His levels stayed great. They kept a close eye on his medications. It is quite the balance game between keeping his body and brain sedated enough, but not too much. I am so greatful for the constant vigilance of these amazing nurses and doctors. I was able to sleep 9 hours, waking just enough all night to ask how he was doing, get a positive update and go right back to sleep. What a blessing. I really needed that sleep. He is still a very very sick little boy and still missing part of his skull, but so far he is exactly what they expect and where they want him to be. Pray that this continues. Please pray for the doctors and nurses as they balance this medication. I just can't let myself think about how precarious things are. I will focus on those levels and they are good.

Kristi Perkins Oh, Ashley I've been there. It's so hard. my heart aches for you and that mixed feeling of being terrified and yet having hope and faith. I'm glad you were able to get some sleep and there are people taking care of your other children. That helps so much. Neurosurgeons are wonderful and can do so many amazing things. We're continuing to pray for you.

David Swenson Ashley, DJ and family. We were so sad to hear about Parker's accident and need for surgery. You're all in our prayers too.
As I'm sure the doctors have told you, little children have an often amazing ability to recover from trauma. We're hoping for the best.
