Jason Hits his Head :(

Yesterday we went to the Dallas Zoo and played. Julia and her kids went with us. We all touched the sting rays (except Brenden who didn't want to). Then we rode on the Monorail and saw the African animals. When we got off they told us we should head for the tunnel because a storm was coming. We got to the tunnel in time to watch the storm and eat our lunch. After the storm passed we continued visiting the other area's of the zoo. Lastly, we went to the children's area. We played in the kids area's and then we changed the kids into their bathing suits and let them play in the stream. If you haven't been to the Dallas Zoo the children's area has a stream where the kids can play in the water. It had started to rain again but that was fine because the kids were in their swimsuits anyway. Jason was jumping off the rocks when he slipped and hit his head. I was watching him and it was a loud crack when his head hit the concrete. This signaled us it was time to go (2:45). We packed up the kids to leave and started home. It was still raining at this time but with Jason crying, we put up with the rain to leave. He feel asleep on the way home and slept about 20 min. Then when we got home he wanted a bucket because he said he was going to throw up. I gave him some Motrin but he was still crying every few minutes saying his head hurt. His pupils were also dilated. I called the doctors office and they said I should take him in if he started to throw up. They said the 3 things to watch out for are throwing up, dilated pupils, and excessive sleepiness. The nurse also said if he starts to throw up take him to the emergency room. Then, of course, Jason goes to sleep at 5:45 and sleeps harder then ever before. He was on the couch and he was out. Ty and Josh gave him a blessing, which made me feel much better. Then, we tried to wake him up a few times but we just thought he was tired. Then we finally got him to wake up at 9:00. We were happy he woke up. This worried Ty and I though because he had slept so long and his pupils were still dilated. We called Mom Lewis (who's a nurse) and she gave us some advice. Then we called the nurses line and she said she would go ahead and take him to the ER just to make sure he was fine. We thought we was okay because we wanted to make sure. We went at 10:00 and they did a CT scan. They came back and said he looks good. He didn't have any swelling or bleeding. The doctor said he has a mild concussion and he should be fine to go home. We were home by 12:00. I hope this is Jason's last CT scan ;). I felt better knowing everything was fine. I was just worried about how heavy and long he was sleeping after hitting his head so hard. I'm so glad Ty and Josh were able to give him a blessing and the we have modern technology to make sure their are no serious injuries.
