End of the School Year

The end of the school year is such a busy time. I have always enjoyed going to school as a student and a teacher. I will probably be the only person who is sad about the arrival of summer on the last day of school . I guess I am weird like that. Makayla went back to the orthopedic specialist yesterday. She has a bad limp and has to have physical therapy three times a week for four weeks. Hopefully, it will help. Makenzie's 8th grade graduation is this week. I will post pictures over the weekend. I hope you all are doing well. Later.

Updates and prayer requests

Monty had a cardiologist appoinment on Thursday. The doctor thinks that he is doing well. He has to have an echocardiogram in June to check his heart function. He has felt better the past few weeks.

Makayla went to an ear, nose and throat doctor last week. She is having trouble hearing out of her right hear. She has to go back over the summer. She has several symptoms of a syndrome that affects the ears. Monty took her and didn't remember the name of it when they got home.

My mom had to have a CT Scan on her head this week. She has a large knot behind her ear. Please pray that it isn't anything to be concerned about.

Please pray for my friend, Kasie, and her family. Her dad, Charles, had to go back to the hospital today. He is still having complications from the surgery he had almost 2 months ago. Please pray that the infection heals quickly and that he is able to return home soon.

Thanks for praying. Have a good week!

Cast free Makayla

Makayla got her cast off today! She is suppose to gradually wean herself off of the crutches and increase the amount of pressure she puts on her foot. She may have to start physical therapy in a couple of weeks. The doctor is concerned about her range of motion so she has to go back in two weeks. He is still worried about the growth plate and will xray both legs in six months and compare the growth. She has to wear a brace with her shoes. After the appointment, we had to go buy her new shoes. After 2 1/2 months in a cast, I didn't figure she would want to wear one almost new shoe and one worn out shoe. We are so excited that she is out of the cast!!

Makayla

Makayla goes back to the doctor on Tuesday. Please pray that she gets the cast off!!!! She broke her leg on March 1st. She had surgery on March 12th. It is May 9th and she is still in a cast. Keep your fingers crossed that it comes off Tuesday. Makayla has another issue that we will be going to to the doctor for soon. A couple of weeks ago, I got an email from the school nurse about Makayla's hearing test. She appears to be unable to hear out of her left ear. I have noticed for a long time that Makayla gradually talks louder and louder. I am always telling her to lower her voice. We are getting this checked out soon. Hopefully on Tuesday night I will be able to post pictures of a cast free leg.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day everyone!
