End of a Rough Day

Right now I am sitting in a recliner at the hospital in between my two little boys. There is no place on Earth that I would rather be. This has been an emotional day but I have to say that we are doing better now. I don't know if will ever be able to accept that Brodie will not be given the chances that other little kids have but we are at peace knowing that God has given him to us and we know we will give him the best life possible. Bradie just came over to me and saw that I had a blanket of Brodie's and he got mad at me and said, "Give back to Brodie.". I would have to say that Brodie has the best big brother that a little boy could ask for. LaVona said something today to her brother that put things in perspective. The machine that saved Brodie's life (ECMO) is what caused the damage to his brain. We just have to be thankful that he was saved by this machine and not worry about what it has taken away. We do however have another big day tomorrow. He is going tomorrow morning for a MRA. The best we can understand this a test where they can see the flow of the blood vessels to the brain. This will let us know if has any clots or if there is any risk for more strokes in the future. This will be another difficult morning so keep us in your prayers. Thanks to all of you. We are not only leaning on each other but the support of each of you. Will keep you posted of what we find out tomorrow.
