Glad he's home. Steal as many hugs as you can, YOU need it! My little Ilan (2 1/2) had knee surgery in Dec. I was with him when they put him under and I was traumatized. The fear and emergency that you felt must be taxing even more so. Do some healing.........for you both!

Thanks for the fever tips too, didn't know some of it....

take care,
susie

I'll post your info on febrile seizures on my blog. That kind of information has to be desseminated as widely as possible. It's a matter of pikuach nefesh.
