Many of you know our Caleb. Maybe you know him from way back. Maybe you learned about him through the blog. Maybe you don’t know him at all. If you fall in the latter category, you are seriously missing out.
Caleb is a treasure. And one of God’s most unique creations. I feel such joy in my heart when I think about our Father knitting Caleb together. With such love and such care. And with a plan.
Caleb has special needs. Very special in fact. And he has no diagnosis. For many years, I did not care one bit about that. In fact, it was a blessing. It helped me not to worry about tomorrow. It helped me to focus on today.
But, we are in a new season now. A season where we want more answers so that we can help Caleb better. Right now, it’s just a want. Only God knows if it’s a need.
Caleb, my mom (Melody) and I will be heading to Cincinnati Children’s hospital next week. The 11th through the 14th to be exact. Caleb will be seen by 7 specialists. Ophthalmology, Orthopedics, Endocrinology, Nephrology, Urology, Gastroenterology and Genetics. It will be a lot.
Please pray that the doctors have a love for Caleb, that they don’t just see him as a number. In my 17 1/2 years as his mama, I have learned that is 90% of the battle. Please pray that he is calm. Please pray for answers.
Thank you all so much for caring about our family. And for praying for us.

I am praying for you and Caleb and your mom. I know some of the struggle with special needs and trying to find out a little of the “why” to figure out the long-term “how”! I pray that the Doctors will be wise and complete in their exams and tests and that they will be able to give you some of the answers that you really need as you go forward in making life good for Caleb! God knows his inward parts and is able to give the answers to the doctors so they can help you the most.

I have so enjoyed seeing Caleb growing up during swim team.- his joy, his determination, his sweet smile that goes on and on, and seeing his precious mom cheering him on and always there at the end of the pool to encourage him!!! He is a precious soul. I will pray for a calm spirit for all of you on your trip. I will pray that God will provide wisdom for the doctors. I do not have a special needs child but i see so much love and joy in every child with special needs that i have had the privilege to know in some way.

Cindy, I will be praying for Caleb and all that these next 10 days will hold. Trusting that the Lord has gone before you and has already picked just the doctors and nurses that will be working with Caleb. Trusting that they are going to fall in love with him. How could they not? Trusting that you will feel the very presence of Jesus with you, your mom and Caleb each day, each hour, each moment. Trusting that He who formed Caleb, fearfully and wonderfully will be sooooo faithful to complete it! God is with you my friend!
