A rough week

Last week was a tough week for us all. Marks mom fell really ill and is still in the hospital.Grandma is very strong and is fighting so hard. The boys had the day off school so we spent a few hours with Grandma.

Some of my family members are having health issues too. Then Broc woke up a couple nights in extreme leg pain and then he was having it during the day too. We called his surgeon in MI and he asked us to have a set of duplex scans done to see if his graft has narrowed anymore.

Nothing bothers him while he has these scans as long as he has the I-pad to watch movies on.

Thankfully there is no more narrowing than there was in August. We have made some adjustments to his gym class at school. He does an activity with the class then rests.While the class is doing the next activity he is the teachers Super Helper to set up the next activity.

Broc is unfortunately still being bothered by the campylobacter bug that he had in Feb. We are thinking it must just be his body cause no-one else in the family has it. We are retesting him again in 2 weeks and then if its still there we will treat with another med. Unfortunately all the meds that treat campylobacter cause him c-diff. When that rears its ugly head then we will deal with this.Mark and I did some research on campylobacter and it can cause some really serious complications, hence our urgency to treat it. 

At meeting on Sunday the boys made a new friend. We hope to have a play date soon.

Then we ended the weekend with basketball. The boys had a ton of fun playing with another new friend.

Hope you all had a great weekend!
