They have taken him in for surgery this morning to help relieve some of the pressure to his chest and brain. His younger siblings are nearly as bad. The 1 1/2 yr. old sister is in a body cast. And the 3 yr. old is probably going to have to have the same surgery to help relieve some of the pressure.

These kids Mother was killed in the tornado. The 2 younger kids daddy was on his way home from work and he is with them at the hospital. Jason's daddy, my sisters nephew, is by his side.

I am heading to the hospital this morning to take snacks and drinks for them so maybe I can update later this afternoon.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Praying especially hard for Jason and the two younger siblings - for their full recovery. I just can't imagine the pain their father must be enduring. Hugs to all.
