Medical funds for Easton
I’ve been overwhelmed with calls texts and messages. I figured this is the easiest way to update everyone. Earlier tonight Easton fell out of a swing and hit his head on a pile of firewood pretty hard. He immediately lost consciousness and became unresponsive. He never regained consciousness. While transporting him to the hospital he stopped breathing and we pulled over so I could start CPR. Fire and rescue and EMS assisted at the scene. He stopped breathing again on scene with EMS. He has been flown to Children’s in Birmingham and we are now in the PICU. He is on a ventilator. He does have a skull fracture, traumatic brain injury, a preexisting cyst we didn’t know about and a few small brain bleeds. Thank you all for you prayers. He’s still in a critical window the next 24-48 hours. Please continue to pray that God will guide the staff here and that he heals him and that he will be able to follow commands soon. Thank you all who showed up to help us today. I was doubtful that he would make it during transport. I’m so thankful God allowed my son to get here. God is in control of this. Whatever the future holds it’s in his hands. Today truly has been the worst day of my life and I really appreciate all that everyone did to get my son here.
PLEASE hold your loved ones tight and don’t take a single moment for granted. Please keep praying.
Update on E. They placed a central line this morning for better access to increase his sodium level to where they need it to be. He’s still sedated but has had some movement. We are waiting on the neurosurgeon to round to let us know what the next steps for us will be. The team here has been amazing. We are so grateful. I appreciate all of your prayers, texts,calls,ect. It’s been chaotic and I’m unable to reply to everyone but I will post updates as I can.
I pleaded with God the entire drive here because I knew the severity of his injuries. A car pulled out in front of us and on the tag the license plate said “Easton” and I knew that God was telling me he heard me and my plea and prayers. Please continue to pray because there is so so much power in the power of prayer. I believe with every bit of me that God is wrapping Easton in his arms.
