New Development

Tonight, Rachel left home with Caleb to go to the Emergency Room at Medical City Children's Hospital in Dallas.

Caleb has a cyst on the base of his brain. He has had headaches for years and we have probably now discovered the source. However, in the past week, he has gotten noticeably weaker, more lethargic, inactive, not hungry, tired, nauseous, and this evening EXTREMELY weak.

He has an appointment with a pediatric neurologist for mid-October, but I guess it will now be late September...

Oh, by the way... I've been cleared to return to work at DFW Airport starting at 4:00 am tomorrow (Tuesday).

Rachel is not doing well. She is taking a month off from the hospital to try to heal. Her leg hurts more, her ribs/chest hurts, and now her wrist hurts from using the crutch. She has a choice, walk on the broken leg - and it hurts and doesn't heal well - OR, use a crutch to protect her leg and hurt her wrist. She needs to sit down and rest!
