Caden’s Page

The ENT procedures went extremely well for Caden on Tuesday.  Caden recovered well and did not even crash for an afternoon nap.  As a matter of fact, his physical therapist forgot that Sherry had canceled for Tuesday afternoon and she showed up on our doorstep at about 4PM.  Caden seemed to be wired for speed […]

I know I pretty much left everyone hanging after the trip to Philadelphia. Leaving everyone hanging was not my intent but rather a result of some unknowns and my state of mind in reference to all that is going on. The end result after CHOP was that the orthopedic surgeon up there agrees with the […]

There has not been any excitement in a while and we are not complaining about that fact either. However, today brought a little excitement to us with a short visit to MUSC. I must start off by saying that this was the smoothest ER visiting at MUSC ever.   And we have had our share […]

ENT Update We took Caden in for an ENT follow up yesterday. We are now at three weeks post surgery. The ENT took a look at the surgery site […]

I wanted to add a few pictures to show how much Caden wants to eat. The picture here on the right is from a therapy session just a few days after Caden turned 1 year old in November of 2005. This is to reassure those guys who hand Caden a sucker at church. Even though […]

We are one week out from the sphincterplasty. I have been looking for some on line references that give a graphical illustration of what this surgery is supposed to do. I have not had any luck. Caden has been doing pretty good and we are praying that he remains illness free so that the surgery […]

I know that is a gross word, but “goobers” best describes this month for Caden. Caden has been cutting molars this past week which definitely increases the goobers. Yes that was plural, he has been cutting multiple molars this week. He started pretty much on Sherry’s birthday with the teeth cutting thing. She was quick […]
