Friends, thank you so much for praying. At our 2 hour genetics appointment, Caleb was as calm as a cucumber. The whole time. He was so funny and engaging. He answered every question and more. He sat patiently as I answered questions. Dr. Belonis (geneticist) is an answer to prayer. She is clearly invested. InContinue reading “Road to Answers #3 ( December 12, 1:25 pm)”

Caleb, my mom and I are in Cincinnati in a lovely apartment. We had a very easy trip. We grocery shopped. We made dinner. We played games. Lovely. Caleb is very happy. He is excited to meet his new doctors tomorrow. Yesterday Silas and Chey’s school mama, Mrs. Sheila, stopped by. She had cards andContinue reading “Road to Answers #2 (December 11, 11:15 pm)”

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 joyContinue reading “The Road to Answers #1 (December 4)”

Well friends, these updates are about to slow down once again. We have our boy back. There just isn’t much else to say. At this point, I am just straight up bragging when I write about him. Aside from his vision, I believe Silas is back to May 30th Silas. He is sweet and kindContinue reading “Silas Update #120 (September 17, 4:50 pm)”

MRI results are in and they are gorgeous! The clots have most definitely cleared. Of course we heard that news a few weeks ago, but the MRI imaging is even more clear so it is great that there were no hidden issues. There was nothing else the least bit noteworthy or interesting… Yay for beingContinue reading “Silas Update #119 (September 9, 1 pm)”

Hello all!!! Just a very quick update on Si’s appointments from today… Ophthalmology went very well. Dr. Wadley was pleased to see that Si’s horizontal vision has improved even more since the last appointment. His vertical vision showed no improvement. So basically, that nerve is still fast asleep. Apparently, that is to be expected whenContinue reading “Silas Update #118 (September 7, 9 pm)”

“Let us bless the Lord, every day and night, never ending praise… “ We are so very thankful. In the day and in the night. We sought the Lord and he answered us. We cried out to Him. Continuously.

Silas is certainly progressing. Praise the Lord! To Him be all glory and honor and praise. He is doing so well in school. He is working hard. He is asking for assistance when he needs it. Silas continues to spend time in the word deeply and daily. He finished memorizing 1 Thessalonians 3 and heContinue reading “Silas Update #116 (August 27, 4:40 pm)”

Silas is amazing. It’s always good to lead with that. That being said, this is hard. A traumatic brain injury is a big deal. Silas is at a place where he really wants to process all of it. He wants to talk about all of it. We have talked about the morning of the accident,Continue reading “Silas Update #115 (August 21, 7:50 pm)”
