Kerry, I am so sorry you are going through this. How heartbreaking to watch him cry and the feeling of helplessness you must of felt at that moment. I hope he gets well soon so you can get some much needed good rest. Please keep up posted. As you know we all care alot about you and your boys.
Stay strong.
