FULL day!

Carson was such a trooper today! He doesn't feel his greatest but we decided to go ahead and make the trip to St. Louis. He did wonderful at Cardinal Glennon with a FULL day of tests! We arrived at 8:45 am and didn't leave until 5:15 without much of a break between appointments. We are awaiting final results but all in all, today was a good day! It always brightens my day when I hear how many lives Carson has touched through his journey. We have so many wonderful friends at Cardinal Glennon and will forever be indebted for what they have done for Mr. Carson! We will see if Carson gets better over the weekend, otherwise we will have to reschedule his surgery next week. Praying for a miracle!

I will make some calls tomorrow to see what his upper GI showed today. This will help us determine whether we should go ahead with the pyloroplasty. Preliminary results showed us that it is emptying better than we initially thought (comparing this study to prior studies), however, I'm not sure it is emptying well enough. We shall see...

Kellen had an okay day...he ran a really high fever last night and a low grade fever on and off all day but he has NO other symptoms...interesting?!? He's not wanting to eat but luckily, Nana got his bottles down him so at least he is getting some fluid.

Thanks for all the prayers! Keep them coming!
Runaway child! Yes, he is running around in a hospital gown and tennis shows : ) Classic!
