Biopsy

Brad had his biopsy this morning and everything went well. They said that we should have some results in a few days. Keep praying that it will be okay!!!

Update

Just to let everyone know Brad's PET Scan got moved up and he went yesterday to have it done. Unfortunately we did not get the greatest news and he is going in early tomorrow to have on of the masses removed from his chest. Just keep him in your prayers tomorrow please!!

P.S. I promise to update the blog with happy post about the kids and our fun weekend with the Kissinger Family!

Also I have started a blog for my buckets! It is whimsytin.blogspot.com go check it out. I have been making lots of buckets here lately so will be posting some new ones. I also will be posting Halloween buckets sometime next week!!!

A Day full of Doctors!

Today Brad had his appointment with the cardiovascular surgeon and still really no answers as to what is going on with him. He is scheduled for a PET Scan next Friday the 15th. The doctor talked to the radiologist before he came into see us and they have actually found 3 more places in his chest that they are concerned about. After Brad has his scan we will hopefully hear from the doctor on Mon to see where we go from here. He said that if the numbers come back fine then he will just want to watch him over the next few months but if they come back weird then he will do a biopsy on one of the areas. So please just keep praying that everything will be okay! Thank you to those who have called or emailed sorry if I have not responded but it is just hard to get back to everyone! I will continue to update on the blog so please check back!


I also had to take Evan to Children's today to have his check-up for his tubes. Anyone who has to go to Children's for appointments knows what a fun trip this is! I usually take a stroller but when I got there I realized that my stroller wheels were messed up so we had to walk or should I say hike to his appointment. Poor Lillie was running trying to keep up, she finally gave in and let me carry her the rest of the way!!!!

Also be watching the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. I took the kids to eat at the Purple Cow for lunch and someone from the paper took pictures of us eating because they are doing a story on family dining! I am sure the pics will be lovely because she wanted action shots of us stuffing our faces!!!!

Brad Update

Well we just got home from Brad's appointment. The surgeon we saw today is actually referring him to a chest surgeon. He has an appointment next Tues so please keep him in your prayers! The doctor today sounded hopeful! I just hate this waiting game and we are just ready to see what is going on with him.

Thank you to everyone who has called, emailed, posted a comment. Sorry if I have not returned your phone call or email it has just been a crazy week. I will continue to post updates about him here as we find out more. It seems to be the easiest way to get to everyone!! Thanks again for all the prayers!!! Keep them coming!!!

Please Pray

Please keep Brad in your prayer over the next couple of weeks. He has recently found some bumps in his lower neck. He went to the doctor on Monday and they found a mass in his chest. We are going to a surgeon on Tuesday. He will decide what to do from there as far as a biopsy of his lymph nodes. Just please pray for him that this will not be anything serious and that he will be fine.

Busted!

One the same day that I picked up Lillie with the fractured wrist Evan had a busted Lip. It must have been a dangerous day at KDO. It healed and his lip was back to normal for a few days when this happened. We went swimming at Uncle Drew's and someone likes to run around the pool and now I think he has figured out why he should mind mommy when she yells no running. This time it is much worse and he also got the lovely scrap on his chin.

The Munchkins Playdate

Ty, Will and Lillie

Lillie and her man Ty!

Jenny and Will are in town for her sister-in-laws wedding so we got to have a get together with all the kids. I have to say the older they all get the harder it is for us to get them to take a group picture! So here are the attempts I made. Sadly our little friend Elle was not in the pics because she was not happy her mommy was holding baby Bryson! We all met at Dale's for donuts to get them all sugared up for the day. Then we headed to Rock Creek to play in their play tubes. It was alot of fun! It is hard to believe that we were all big preggers two years ago with these babies.
