Brent has had a challenging time but good all the same.
While Brent and Carolyn were visiting in Abbotsford Brent tripped and fell. He hurt his left hip and right knee. He became quite nauseous from the whole ordeal and ended up not eating very well. Brent spent 2 days in the Abootsford Regional Hospital. The staff and Doctors were amazing and took very good care of Brent. Thanks to Dr. Newton and Dr. Hews and all the Nurses on the pediatric ward for such excellent care. We teased Brent that he didn't have to see the inside of every hospital in every city we go to.
Brent and Carolyn would like to thank Kathy and Bill for opening their lovely home to us so we could visit Auntie Dean and Phoenix. It was also great to meet Kay and Anne.
Our first part of the trip home was hard on Brent. He was in quite a bit of pain all over. The second day though was much better. He tolerated a longer day. On the way home Brent, Grandma, Grandpa and Carolyn stopped in to see Uncle Jim and Aunt Elsie, Harold and Edith Larsen, and Uncle Frank and Aunt Hazel.
It was so good to get home to Scot and Harley and our own beds.
It was back to school on Monday the 19th. Brent was pretty tired and his knee was still bothering him alot, but with Travis at physio working on him and getting lots of much needed rest Brent is doing much better.
We are off to Regina tomorrow, Tuesday the 27th to have some tests done to see if the ostomy can be reversed. Please pray for wisdom and guidance for the Doctors.
Brent is looking forward to seeing all of his Regina General friends. Nurses beware... Brent still has that very mischievious side of trying to get you with syringes of water.
Thank you for your prayers.
Keep hoping. Keep loving. Keep praying.
