Still waiting....

Well, the weekend was very hard for Samuel. He slept almost the whole weekend only waking up to eat. His pain has not improved and at times it seems pretty unbearable. On Sunday, while he was sleeping in the chair in the living room, I went into his bedroom and took his Christmas gifts out of the boxes and put them away. They were all untouched because he doesn't feel like doing anything right now. Sarah has been giving Samuel books to read. When he is awake, he sometimes reads for a while. This evening he is up and actually even watching a movie with the little kids. I even saw him smile at some of the funny parts. He has very little energy right now and just wants to sit perfectly still so it doesn't hurt as bad. I called Johns Hopkins Hospital today like Dr. Gearhart told me to do. His nurse told me she was working on coordinating the consultation with the 4-5 surgeons that would be involved in his first big reconstruction surgery.  She said that if I didn't hear back from her by noon tomorrow to call her back. So, once again we are waiting.....  Please pray that tomorrow we will get some answers and that tonight is less painful for Samuel than it has been. Thank you.
