We had a great birthday party for Riley and Caden yesterday. Riley turned 4 years old last week and Caden will be 2 years old on Thursday of this week. We had a great group of friends and family over to our house to celebrate both birthdays at once. The pictures will be coming soon. Most were taken with the 35mm and will be on their way to Snapfish tomorrow.
Thank you to all who came and participated. Thank you for the showering of wonderful gifts to our boys. May God bless you and your families.
Surgery Update
It has been cancelled. We received a call to reschedule again last week on the very same day that we had decided to call and cancel the surgery. Sherry just told them to remove Caden’s name from the surgery schedule. The pacemaker was put in for preventative reasons in the first place and it has not been known to function properly since shortly after it was implanted back in June 2006. We believe that Caden does not need the pacemaker and his health over the past four months has proven it. We have received numerous confirmations on the decision to cancel the surgery. Not to mention, the pacemaker was turned off by the technicians over three weeks ago on the orders of the cardiologists. That decision was made without a single doctor visiting Caden’s bedside during that visit.
It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. Psalm 118:8 (KJV)
Enough said.
Callie Stapp
Our little friend Callie and her family live just outside of Atlanta. Callie was diagnosed with the same underlying diagnosis as Caden, but with a much higher degree of complications. Callie needs to get to California ASAP. I have put out a call for airline tickets or a private jet over on The Land of Ozz and included a detailed explanation as to why they need to go to Stanford.
