+188 Home already from 6m.check up

Howdy Ya'll,

We are heading back home to TN after a couple days of labs and tests up here in Minnesota.
I have done so well and the doctors are so very happy with my progress, we just praise the Lord.

We were able to get in the R.McD house on Saturday (despite a very long waiting list) and I got to put in my pop tabs that we have been collecting. Make sure ya'll keep your pop tabs to share with the McD house, that helps them make money. The house felt a little lonely with all my regular friends gone (gracie and her family,Wyatt, DaNNY,Liam and more), but I was so very glad to have my bestest Triplet friend there,Torie (and her grandma's)!!!!!!! I got to play for just a little while with Torie, but it was nice to see her around and get to wave to her at clinic. She is getting around a little more each day, please keep her in your prayers as she has surgery today and more clinic visits this week before heading home.

So for now I get a rest from all these Dr. visits. I have an ENT and lab appointment in about 2 weeks then it will be just checkups (except for my ear tube replacement) from here till my year check up in February. I love playing and exploring and my family and I are just taking it one day at a time. We are thanking God for each day He gives us and we pray that we can share what God has done for me with everyone.

We pray that ya'll are having a wonderful summer and will have a blessed week.

Lots of love to all,

Josiah

+183 Minnesota here we come!

Well it is me again,

My sister is giving me a hug goodbye (in the picture) but right now I am sitting in our van for a very long car ride. I don't know how long it is but it sure seems forever when you have to sit in a car seat for hours (and hours and hours :). My mommy, daddy and I are heading up to Minnesota for my 6m. check up. Can you believe it has been 6m. already!? My family and I are so thankful that the Lord has kept me so far. I have been off all my medicine for a couple weeks now but I did start on an antibiotic on Monday. My ear has been draining fluid and wax for a couple months but it is getting worse. Then last Saturday my ear hurt and there was a little blood draining from it too. Since the Dr. has been keeping up with it she just called in an antibiotic and hopefully it will get better. Mommy is also putting some herbal drops and cream on the outside as well and it all seems to be helping. Plus we didn't want anything to happen on our trip. I can hardly wait to be up there, hopefully we will get to stay at the Ronald McDonald house. It is so much fun there and they take such good care of my family and I. My triplet Torie is coming too!! My most exciting part is that I will get to see her and her Grandma's. Please pray for safety and good check ups for me and Torie. Pray also for my sisters and Jay who stayed at home with Grandma and Grandpa.

Thanks for checking on me, I miss sharing my news with everyone but are very blessed that I don't have much news to share.

Love to all,

Josiah
