Brian missed playing basketball in the 7th grade because of the broken leg.  He decided to give it a try this year.  He did a really good job in his first game, especially given the fact he only had a week of practice before the game.   Share

Brain’s operation time was suppose to begin at 2:00 PM, so we left the house around 9ish to give us plenty of time to get there.  In route, we received a call asking if we could be there by 11AM.  I told them I would try. I put the pedal to metal and we arrived [...]

Today, we returned for our follow up visit with Dr. Wilson.  When we arrived they took Brian straight back to x-ray.  There they took an x-ray of his left leg, one of him standing, and one of his left hand.  Dr. Wilson then came in to meet with us.  He was optimistic but said from [...]

Yesterday, Brian had his 13th Birthday party.  It was a great turn out.  I just wish it had not been so cold.  The party started at 6:00 PM with a temperature around 72 degrees and a strong North wind.  Needless to say the kids did not swim very long. We had volleyball and basketball set [...]

Yesterday, we went to see Dr. Wilson. It was a great visit.  We arrived two hours before our appointment.  We did not know how long it would take us to get to Plano, so we left at 5AM for our 10:30 appointment.  The staff was great and worked us in early without us even asking.  [...]

In January, we returned to Scott & White for a follow up to Brian’s broken leg, the pinched blood vessel, and the infection.  Dr. Brien told us that Brian’s infection was gone, Praise the Lord.  We visited Vascular, where they strapped him into all kinds of pressure cuffs and ran several test.  The Vascular Specialist [...]

I am writing this post in May and back dating the publishing to December to put it in the correct timeline. It has taken me months to be able to sit down to write this post.  It is also the reason I have not posted much over the past few months. On November 4th, 2010, [...]

Megan turned 11 and had her first sleep over party. Share

Well we made it home.  We got up and hit the road at midnight.  When we hit Arkansas we hit a cold front.  It was only 80 degrees, so I kept on driving.  The next thing I know it was 7PM and I was pulling into the drive way.  It was a wonderful trip but I think [...]
