We are finally home but we have several Doctor appt's.for a couple of months-up to a year. We have learned alot about Pulmonary Embolism they are very rare in kids and most kids pass away from them because the symptoms are pushed aside or thought to be something else. we have learned that a soft ball size of kalebs right lung has died but the lung will regrow that part eventually. but for now we will be on blood thinners for awhile and can return to school hopefully DEC 14 for partial days. we also learned that the blood clot traveled up through his leg and passed through his heart then stopped in his lung so we are blessed it stopped where it did and not in his heart or it would have been a different story I would be telling. so sometimes are blessings are there during tough times we just don't know tell we are out of it and find out the whole story. we are counting our blessings at the end of this eventful week and weekend.
