He spent a few nights with his grandparents, but it was obvious that he was upset by it all. Even our 1 year-old showed signs that he knew something was wrong.

it is over now, except for the recovery part.  But at least their mommy is at home.

Perhaps there is a cousin or friend who could spend some or all of this
time doing a slumber party to take his mind off of mom.

Absolutly-- I applaud you
Children are more asute than most parents give them credit for.  I have 4 daughters and we have always been open and honest with them.  They know just by my actions and mood when something is amok and I have never lied to my girls and I never will.  The truth is always the best route to go.  They build trust in you and respect, therefore they come to you when they have troubles of their own.  This is great once they reach puberty!!
