Ok so here is the latest update.  Kason ended up with a virus.  Thankfully Kohlton has not gotten it.  But Kohlton has had a new side effect from his chemo.  He couldn’t really walk for about 30 minutes on one leg on Tuesday.  He hasn’t had that since but we will be talking with our doctor about it.  It’s still very scary even when you know what to watch for and it does happen.  Wednesday and Thursday went great.  On Friday we had to head to get blood work for Kohlton, to make sure his counts were good for surgery on Monday.  Thankfully the old pediatric infusion center got us in for his blood work, this way he didn’t have to meet another person.  Well, getting the blood didn’t go as smoothly as it usually does.  I’m assuming that what nurse “J” did to him on Monday scared him on Friday. He screamed like there was no tomorrow, and it was Mrs. Chris doing it.  I knew this was going to happen.  We are going to have to figure out a way to get him comfortable again.  Thanks nurse “J”.  (that was said sarcastically)  The good thing is his counts are great, well great for him! YAY!  So, Monday morning we headed for surgery.  The lady that checked us in was amazing.  She even gave curious George a medical bracelet too.  So sweet!
So sweet! 
Dr. Pennington said everything went well.  He did not see any scaring from any other surgery.  He did not see any sign of a Cholesteatoma.  Or any lesions or tumors!  YAY YAY YAY!  So excited about that!  Kohlton did great.  He even woke up ready to play, like nothing had even happened to him.  They did remove wax build up and we will have to use a wax softener to get it to come out more.  They said they removed what would be a large amount for an adult.  He is going to hear much better!  He’s already told me “maw maw, your really loud” twice today.  It’s pretty funny.  So, I’m trying to be quieter. 
So peaceful!


Please keep praying for Kohlton and all of us!  Thank you!
