JACOB MADE IT!

Jacob is now in deep coma. He got there over night. He's actually into a little bit of a too deep coma right now, so they're backing off on some of the medication to have some brain activity, but the SEIZURES ARE GONE.
I never thought that a coma could bring happiness, but it truly does. I woke up at 4 am, and got the good news, and simply could not go back to sleep! I don't care, we have no more seizures as of now!
It will most likely be two quiet days ahead of us as Jacob stays in the coma. We will then have a couple of days when Jacob slowly gets out of the coma, and the big day of extubation - but no worries about that today. We first have to celebrate the victory that Jacob got out of status epilepticus after 11,5 (!) days.
Thanks for everyone's support through this nerve-wracking time.
Love, Maria.
