Hospitalization (Nov. 18)
Lucas was admitted to the hospital yesterday. There was an incident while both of us were out of the house and Lucas was at home with a nurse. He suddenly stopped breathing, and she wasn’t able to get air into his lungs. Krista’s mom was there and called the paramedics, and they arrived, performed CPR and eventually took him to the emergency room. He stabilized, but the incident clearly took a toll on his body.
Please hold him in your thoughts and prayers today. We think it is likely he will fully recover, but for now we have only seen him moan and wiggle his fingers slightly. Needless to say, it’s been a hard and scary night for us. It also made us realize once again how deeply we love Lucas and feel lucky to have him in our life.

Burke, Krista, and Lucas,
I am in the Hague right now, I am sorry to have been out of touch. I am very sorry that the three of you (and your nurse) had to have this traumatic experience. It’s not fair and I am holding you all in my thoughts and prayers. I still need to read more current blogposts, I understand that Lucas is recovering now.
While I’m sorry and it’s not fair, I also know that you guys are strong and Lucas is a gentle fighter. I hope you return home and back to (our atypical) normal life soon.
Love,
Cora (Jim, Phoebe and Leo)

Burke and Krista – We are all thinking of Lucas and the two of you. Right now I am thinking about how much good you all do for this world and the way you show up every day with postive energy. I am hoping that the rest of us can give back some of that energy and thoughtfulness to your family.

I woke up, thinking of Lucas and how his weekend made everything else in my world seem a whole lot less important. We’ll all be holding good, strong, healthy thoughts for the three of you.
