Rough start...

Happy New Year! This year is gonna be a great one for our family and we just KNOW IT! But it has gotten off to a bit of a rough start for my babies! Please keep them lifted up in prayer.
Deacon has an ear infection and has had a cold for two weeks. The guy never even complained! :-( We discovered it by accident really while getting Braydon checked out!
Braydon is a sick little boy right now but God has healed him before and WILL do it again! Braydon has been fighting a cold for a couple of weeks as well but didn't seem to be doing as well as Deacon. He had had a few sinking spells where he just seemed exhausted and shaky. He had some headaches and some justweird stuff going on. He was due to be at the doctor in Houston for his check-up with his oncologist in 48 hours but I thought I might get him checked out just in case cause something didn't seem right. Boy was I right! The lower lobe of Braydon's left lung is collapsed. There is no medicine to cure this so a hospital admission or prescription was not necessary BUT we did come home with a cool little breathing device and he basically has to "work out" that lung. EVERY 15 MINUTES for 2-3 days (except while sleeping).
Tomorrow we head to MD Anderson as planned. X-rays to follow later this week.

We also found out the results of his Nuero-Cognitive testing at MD Anderson from back in November. Braydon has been diagnosed with ADHD. At this point (especially since I homeschool him) we have decided not to treat it with medicine but just to change his diet, treat him naturally and just work with him on some behavioral/discipline things.
Will keep yall updated....just keep praying! God listens friends!
