Recovery Day 1 is almost over. Ian is asleep now. Hoping he sleeps through the night, but not counting on that. He is doing well. He is quite alert when he is awake, and calms more quickly each time. Some of the drugs he is on cause some confusion as he awakens and doesn't know for sure where he is. He's been quite the trooper though, and I have no reason to doubt that will continue. As a good sign, he's already asking to eat, drink, and go to the potty (I believe there won't be a regression from potty training).

This particular post is mostly about thanking the literally thousands upon thousands who have been praying for my son. Please keep the prayers coming, as we have multiple hurdles still to jump in the next few days.
