Kenny Update--May 7th

Outside of one dose of Tylenol late in the week for a small headache, Kenny has had no pain meds since the night of the surgery last Monday. The drainage has slowed down and he is sleeping well in my chair. There is a rumor that he might try sleeping in his own bed in the next couple of nights. He is doing great. The doctors had released him for any normal activities that he felt like doing. So Saturday he went to the last Greenwood Round Robin Bible Bowl meet for the season and was able to stay for the entire day. Sunday he did a couple of school video’s, followed by church service, then back home for lunch and more school then back to church to watch Jamie play the Beginner Bowl finals to wrap up his weekend.

This is going to be an especially busy week for all of us. Tomorrow we head back to OSU - Columbus, OH for a check-up and to have his stints removed. That will just be a day trip. Wednesday we are at IU-Riley Children’s Hospital Indianapolis for an updated MRI, Thursday we are at the Proton Center in Bloomington, IN for a meeting and I just found out that we are in the Oncologist office Friday morning at IU-Riley Children’s Hospital North in Carmel, IN for a meeting to discuss additional chemo treatments.

Prayer request
A busy week of doctor appointments. 4 appointments/4 days/4 cities/2 states and a partridge in a pear tree.
Tomorrow especially – Kenny really does not like it when they have the instruments up in his nose. Just that it is quick and not too uncomfortable.
School. Obviously he is behind with all of the illness that he has had. He is chipping away at it but the prayer is that he can be completely caught up before the August deadline.
The Oncologist is waiting for a pathology report from the OSU surgery. Praying that there are no surprises.
Strength and stamina for Jo and I.

Thank you one and all!
