Pumpkin Patch Day



We had the BEST weekend ever!  The week started with going to the pumpkin patch and Halloween fun at the Cole's house.  We celebrated my birthday this weekend and had a wonderful time.  Halloween was filled with fun parties and friends.  We had so much fun before James' first week at work.

James started work today!  We are so proud of him for working so hard in law school and getting such a great job.  I know he is looking forward to this new adventure and we know he is going to be a success.  We miss him dearly but are not going to be sad.  Instead we are just thankful for the past three months.  They have been awesome and not many people get to spend three months of no distractions with their new son.  It was wonderful!  We love you James!!!!

We have a lot of doctors appointments coming up so hopefully we will be learning a lot of new information.  I am going to my OB tomorrow to get some information for the DBA registry and talk to her about trying to have a sibling with a bone marrow match for James Thomas.  On Wednesday we are back at TCH for a blood test and probably a transfusion.  I can kind of tell his counts are dropping.  I am anxious to see what they are.  Next week we are at TCH for some ultrasounds and another appointment with our doctor.  We have been doing lots of research and have some good questions to ask her when we go.  We feel like we are starting to understand this condition and are ready to get the ball rolling.  We want James Thomas to be DBA FREE and we know God is working on a miracle to cure our son. Please continue to pray for complete healing for James Thomas.  We know that it will happen we just don't know when!   I will continue to update you as soon as we know anything.  Please pray for home health.  I have called them twice today and it is 3:00 and no one has come or called.  It is rather frustrating and I really need them to come so we can take care of James Thomas' pic line.  Besides that we are doing great.

I hope you each had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed the great weather!  We continue to be blessed by all your love and support.  Thank you thank you!

love,

  3. Lindsay...I just wanted you to know that I've been keeping up with your journey with sweet James Thomas and have been praying earnestly for you guys along the way. I'm so proud of you and your witness as his mom...my sweet little teenage camper has become such a steadfast, wonderful woman of God. We will keep praying that he will be DBA free very soon!
