CHRISTMAS 2005














01-12-2006 UPDATE
We are still at home. Brock continues to do very well, although he has not woke up yet. Still moving around, growing, does open his eye lids from time to time. Occasionally he gets a little puffy from extra fluid but all in all, he looks great.

A couple of weeks ago while doing some routine blood checks, some of the results looked like he had an infection somewhere. Brock's Dr. started checking things out when probably a week later, a bump pops up on his head. It continued to grow and then one of the bumps friends moves in next door. Anyway the thing kept growing and probably got to the size of a golf ball and stuck out from his head about an inch. Our Dr came by, to take a look and he told us he thought it was a boil caused by a staph infection. He was started on antibiotics and several days later the thing finally ruptured. The Brock's Dr sent us to a wound Dr here in Abilene and he cut off the bad skin and cleaned it up a bit. It was then revealed that the wound had compromised his bone, making a small hole in his skull. We clean and dress it often, trying to keep the area clean. The Dr has given us instructions to let nobody touch his head.

The wound, now six days later looks good. It is pink, has a good blood flow and looks healthy. Brock's Dr came by and looked at it Monday night and he thought it (the hole and the wound)looked smaller. Looks that way to us as well.
Please continue to lift us up in prayer. We are in a wonderful position to see great and mighty works of our Father.

Love you all. Miss seeing you. Kevin and Barbara
