July 17

Parker had his CT scan on 7/9 as planned. The first IV blew out, probably a little painful but he never complained, so they had to put another one in which worked great. When Dr. Reyes office called to confirm our appointment we learned that he was going to be out of the office Thursday & Friday and we would be seeing the PA. We like his PA but since we were getting the results from the CT I wanted to be able to visit with Dr. Reyes. Therefore, we had our appointment today. He had a chest Xray and breathing test today. The Xray showed signs of improvement over the last one (taken on 5/31) and the test indicated that his lung capacity has improved a lot!! Dr. Reyes had Parker do a breathing treatment and then do the breathing test over again. There was only a slight change in the lung capacity so he felt that we could stop breathing treatments and do them only on a need as basis. As far as the results from the CT scan we still don't have them because the hospital hadn't sent the report to the doctor! The nurse called the office to have them fax it and they indicated it would be on its way but it never came! Dr. Reyes indicated he would call us when he received it. We will do an update as soon as we get the results but we are feeling good about it since the Xray and lungs have improved! God is good!

We made it to the Logumall Inn for the Fireworks Follies Festivities. Parker was the lucky guy who "started" the fireworks! Stay tuned for pictures of that. (Big Jerry had told Parker when he was in the hospital that he had to get better so he could "light the first firework". He was true to his word!)

Thank you for all your prayers and support! Love, Kay

July 5th!

We hope everyone had a great 4th of July! Parker's Boy Scout Pack 569 participated in the Bethany parade. This is their 3rd year and last year their float won 1st place. Haven't heard about this year yet. As you can see from the pictures Parker thoroughly enjoyed the parade!

We've been working on organizing cards from our hospital stay. We are happy to report that Parker received 520 cards while he was there. THANK YOU for your prayers and support!

Parker will be having a CT scan at Outpatient on Monday and then we will see the doctor on Thursday to find out the results. Our prayer is that this scan will show improvement and that he will not have bronchlectasis as the doctor suspects. We will update the blog next week after the visit.

We are happy to report that Wendi Humes, our blog master, tests results are back and everything is fine! Thank you for all your prayers for her and family during this time. Their little baby boy will be making his arrival in early November.

Parker's lastest appearance on KOCO5 we are still watching just wish they would lose the footage of me!! You might not have seen Parker on the Saturday before. We went to the blood drive at the Edmond's Farmers Market and Rick put Parker on so it was live and hilarious!! Parker let them know he was going to take Rusty McCranie's job!

If you saw Monday's segment you learned that Rick lost his Mother due to injuries sustained in a car accident. We were saddened by the news and know what a difficult time this has been for him and his family. It has been a little over a year that we lost my Dad due to a car accident so when we heard this news it brought back the memories of those emotions and know how heavy their hearts are. Please keep Rick and his family in your prayers.

Have a blessed week......Love, Kay
