We got back from MD Anderdson in Houston last night. Everything went great! Most of you know Braydon was diagnosed with pnuemonia and had a small section of his left lung was collapsed last week. Braydon's pnuemonia is clearing up and hopefully the collapsed area of his left long is on it's way to a full recovery. His oncologist said that he didn't hear any wheezing and crackling sound yesterday-that's great news! He hasn't had a fever in 48 hours and seems to be feeling well today.
Both of the kids were just great on the trip. Deacon, it turns out, is as good a traveler as Braydon....well almost. Best news...we got a BIG BLESSING out of this trip. Braydon just got moved out to three month appts. We don't have to go back until April. THIS IS GREAT. Most cancer patients spend about 6 months coming every other month after treatment ends, then another 6-12 months coming every three month, then they get moved to 6 months, a year, etc. Braydon had to spend 18 months coming every other month due to the fact that he is "high-risk" which mean he is at high risk for relapse based on his condtion at the time of his diagnosis. 18 months off chemo is a long time to still be coming so regularly, so starting to come every three months is a big deal!!!
On January 18th Braydon will be in remission for 5 years! Medically that is considered "cured" but we know he was "HEALED" a long time ago!
What a wonderful report! Praising the Lord with y'all. He is so so good!
