Primary Children's Medical Center
I am overwhelmed with gratitude for Primary Children's Medical Center, and all the Dr's. Luke was extremely sick over the past week, and had to go to PCMC from Sunday to Wednesday. During this time his spark had left, he laid lifeless in our arms, and didn't even flinch when given 3 different IV's, a CAT scan, etc... It was such a horrible experience to watch my sweet son endure such sickness that he could barely move or cry.
Today his spark is back! His eyes are fully open and brilliant, and his incredible smile is once again being flashed across his face. He is being silly and teasing us. My heart is literally jumping for joy! I have offered many many many prayers of thanks. Yes, it was very traumatic for our family, and the price tag will be huge...but as crazy as it sounds I'm not worried about it. Some how in some way everything will work out over time, and now we have our amazing son back to his usual happy self. Priceless.
Life is good, really really good. I've realized through this experience that it is incredibly important to acknowledge the good in our lives. It is so easy to get caught up in the stresses of life, but in reality so much of it doesn't matter. My perspective on many things has been improved, and I am thankful for that. Thank you to everyone who has prayed for us, and served us in any way. We feel of your love and prayers. We have been blessed beyond measure.

I agree PCMC is truly the BEST! The doctors, and every aspect of that hospital is amazing. I am sorry you had to go through this experience. Been there and done it too many times, BUT you are right. You leave the experience with a profound thankfulness and understanding that you would not have had, had you not experienced this scary experience, Glad Luke is fine and that you are home, safe and sound. Love you!
I'm so glad that Luke is feeling better. Having a child in the hospital is one of the worst things ever. We've done it with both girls and both times they were very sick. I'm so greatful for awesome hospitals and for healthly kids!!! A mini breakdown may be coming soon just to worn you....I always did about a week after the girls got out of the hospital and things calmed down....or maybe it was just because I'm a crazy person!!!!
Wow - what an ordeal!!!
SO glad that little Luke is feeling better - it's so terrifying when a kid is sick.
Did they find out what was wrong? Poor guy- poor family. I am glad things are going so much better now.
So glad that everything is okay! I know that your kids can get the Very best care at Primary children's. It is such a blessing to have it so close. Glad you are all home and that your little Luke is feeling better. It is truly a blessing to have a healthy child and receive some perspective at the same time. Will pray for Luke to be 100% soon!
