miracle child

benedict is a miracle child.
on monday, we were walking into the williamsberg township thing (it has old shops and workhouses, and people in costumes doing blacksmith stuff etc) and benedict was falling behind. i went over picked him up and began running towards mum and dad. then i slipped.
his head hit the concrete. he was unconscious. with 30 seconds mum had awakened him. but he said he was feeling funny, and kept wimpering. we straight away took him to the local emergency clinic. they told us he had to go to the hospital for a cat scan.
when we finnally arrived, he was sent of for his car scan while i had my hand bandaged (it had been badly grazed by the fall). we waited. ages later the doctor came back with the results. he had a fractured skull and some internal bleeding. i had cracked my cute 6yr old brothers head. i felt terrible.
they transfered him to a larger hospital about an hour away (he went in an ambulance). here they took him to intensive care and took more catscans. after hours of waiting (me and dom couldnt see him as he was only allowed 2 guests;mum and dad) we were told he would be moved to the pediatrics intensive care unit. the fall had happened at about 9 in the morning. it was now 7 at night. most of the day was just waiting and praying. probably the worst day of my life.

the following day they took another catscan, and when the results came through, they thought it would be ok to move him out of the intensive care unit, into the normal pediatric unit. he was talking fine and smiling and just watched catroons all day. then this morning we got a call from the hospital from mum who was staying with him. the doctors had look at him and the internal bleeding was completely gone!! this was a miracle, because it meant we could keep our flight on thursday to england. (if he had internal bleeding he couldnt fly, and we were about to delay the flight until monday).
the doctor said it was extremely unusual for all the blood to have been absorbed by now as it usually takes up to two weeks. his was gone in two days.

the doctors say he will be completely fine and the fractured skull will take about 10-12 weeks to heal.

thanks to everyone who prayed (especially to my hardcore catholic sister :P)
