What a crazy time we have had this past month! Between Noah's program, football for Eli, holidays with family fun and traveling -- not to mention a couple of nasty colds that hit back to back... How have we had time to breath?!
We are still trying to recover from the colds and ensuing infections, which means Noah's physical program has been slow-going. And, really, that's always my biggest frustration. A cold for most of us means feeling bad for a while and coughing for a few weeks after if it was a bad cold. For Noah it is a huge set-back to his program. Why is that such a big deal? Well, a set-back to Noah's program is a set-back to his life. Noah needs about 4-6 months straight of great program to really see improvement in his ability to function, and it has been a while since we've been able to get really great program going for that long of a period. PRAYER!!
Also, Noah is having surgery next week -- on Wednesday (Dec. 5). He's having an orchiopexy on both sides. Don't know what that is? Google. The last thing I want to talk about on this blog is Noah's... Ah, just google it.
Anyway, it is supposed to be outpatient. Of course the last time Noah has outpatient surgery he was in the hospital four days. So another reason for prayer!
Noah's army is a group of volunteers united in doing a program that will give Noah the best chance he has for reaching his potential. Come by any time for news on his progress and to see pictures of him and his brother.
Prayer Requests
UPDATED 08/20/12
1. Please pray that we can continue to get our new house set up for all of Noah's needs and that we can find all the volunteers we needs to do Noah's program (this is always a big, slow process when we move).
3. Our other big request is for Noah's hip. Noah's out-of-joint left hip is really holding him back. He needs range of motion, and he needs the muscles that are too tight to loosen up and the loose muscles to tighten up and get bigger. Pray for a new type of physical therapy we are started specifically to help the hip.
