Final MRI results and vacation!


We have some results finally, and what a week it has been. I have not posted as I have not felt up to sharing.
Monday we get the call that there is a spot and we need to have an MRI done. Well not wanting him to miss school I did not make the appointment till April 4th - that latest about 30 minutes.
The appointment changed to today and a follow up with Dr. Yundt. So off Bruce and Josh go as Sarah and I hang tough at school.
Well the spot is still there. It is itty bitty and I guess was there at the CT scans at Children's ! No one let us know so we were worried and fussing this week. But once again Josh's faith is amazing. He did not break down till last night and we went through all that could happen - having private nurses Aunt Loretta and Aunt LeMay were high on the list.
So the results show that the spot is the same size as they were in November and he is not really worried. We go back for another MRI in two months, if the spot stays the same - then they will decide that it is just scar tissue and not to worry. So as Josh has said all along it was just scar tissue.
The best part for Josh was it was only a 30 minute CT scan and that he did not feel the contrast being put in his arm. But even better was going to Kentucky Fried Chicken for popcorn chicken as the Outback was not open.
Tomorrow we head to Salem to see the Grandparents - then on Monday out to the beach with Grandma Bev and Grandpa Norm. What an awesome celebration this is going to be.
Looking ahead to going to an awesome retreat in May - and then speaking and sharing about Fred through out Oregon this summer.
Have a great Spring Break!
The Henry's
Bruce, Lori, Josh and Sarah
