Caden’s Page

Caden is improving but not out of the woods yet. Caden has been fever free for about 36 hours with the exception of a few low-grade fevers. His need for a oxygen has decreased and he has actually been off oxygen for a few hours everyday for the past three days. Tonight is night 7 […]

Okay, it was only a BB Gun, but still, it was a gun. And for a 6 year old kid who we were told might not ever walk if he even survived his first week of life, this is pretty cool and exciting stuff for a dad. And let is not forget that he was […]

I ran into an old friend and co-worker at lunch this week. We both work for the same division of our organization but rarely get to see each other due to tasking.  He follows Caden’s Page via the email updates and asked me how things were going with Caden.  As a result of his question […]

We didn’t really hear anything new in terms of ideas to get Caden to swallow from the first clinic (ENT).  Caden’s local ENT doc had […]

Today we celebrate five years of Caden’s life.  What a blessing we got on Election Day 2004.  We had no idea where the journey would take us on that day, but now we know that God had a plan to do a wonderful work in our lives as well as many others.  God has taught […]

Here is a quick update on Caden’s condition.  We decided to forgo the ER visit we were contemplating on Sunday.  Caden had a pretty good day on Sunday once he got up and started moving around.  Sherry took him to the pediatrician on Monday and he has been slowing improving.  We are still bunking int […]
