After my precious baby boy had spent all day fri with a headache and throwing up I was concerned about dehydration bc he was still throwing up, moaning about his head and he is so small already, he has no weight to lose. So Glenn called the after hours line and they said take him to urgent care. After waiting an hour they called us back and when we tried to get his weight he couldn't stand up on the scale and told us he was dizzy. They said we aren't gong to see him, he needs a cat scan, go directly to the ER. The ER did the cat scan, started some fluids, gave him some headache meds and we waited. Then everything kinda blew up. Some of it still seems somewhat like a blur, like i am still in this fog of unreal, like maybe its really just a nightmare and I'm going to wake up and we will all be home and well and normal. sigh. The nurse practitioner comes in and sits down and tells us that Kayson, our Kayson, our baby, this light in our family, has a mass on his brain and they will be flying him to Dallas as soon as they can! What?!? What?!? God? Are you there? (He is!) NO!!!!! Why? this isn't supposed to happen. This CAN'T be happening! NO! She walks out, we are in TEARS! What do we do now, what next? again, why? NO! Phone calls, visitors, lots of visitors, I don't know what happened to the ER rules but at one point there was like three or four in the room with us and MORE in the waiting room! We had a whole army of Jesus family show up by our side. I don't know what we would've done without them! One couple said we are here with our van, we are driving you into Dallas. Glenn got to go on the plane with Kayson. Margaret drove me in while her husband Andy went all the way out to our house, picked up some needs and drove the Jeep in to us so we would have it. We arrived at the Children Medical Center ER close to midnight.
