Caught a bug

July 25th Update:

Isaac has his first fever since we removed his port back in March. Although I hate to see him sick it was oddly refreshing knowing that we didn't have to rush to the emergency room. This was the first time in 2 years that I got to deal with my child's sickness "normally". We assume that he got a little bug from his week at Vacation Bible School.  He absolutely loved his time there and I'm so glad he got to go learn about God and interact with kids his own age. But since I stay home with him daily his little immune system just wasn't ready for all those germs. Lol

So he had it's fever Friday evening until Sunday morning. So we watched a whole lot of Netflix this weekend. Then Monday and Tuesday he has no fever but has been pretty boogery/snotty. But I'll take it. I'm so thankful that we've been given these "restful" few months and I'm praying that continue. 

Next MRI is next week. We continue to pray for stable results and that the pesky little cyst disappers completely.  How amazing would that be if we didn't have to worry about another possible surgery or further treatment. Praying Praying.

Next MRI Scheduled

July 9th Update:

Isaac has his next MRI scheduled for Friday, Aug 4th in Iowa City. This comes just 6 short weeks after his last one. He is doing well currently and is not showing any negative symptoms. However we do have a couple appointments this week for him. They wanted him to go see an eye doctor because of the positioning and placement of the cyst could cause double vision or similar problems. We don't think he has any problems currently but it's kind if hard to know what a 3 year old is seeing. Next, we are going back to Blanks Hospital in Des Moines to have a neurological exam done. This is half way between his last MRI and next one. 

We are still praying like crazy that his tumor remains stable and that the cyst shrinks. We serve a great and mighty God who can do miracles. #HeIsHealer #ToughAsNails
