Be looking for a small package from North Carolina Friday or Saturday hopefully. We're all praying and pulling for Owen!

Awesome news Darren.

Grandma and Grandpa should find a box for Owen in your mail today, by the way.

They found a package in the mail today. Hopefully they'll get it here on Friday. The snow is starting to fall so I told them not to risk the roads tomorrow.

He loves Hot Wheels cars exc... He was asking for more cars yesterday morning.

Still waiting for todays MRI report. Those guys are very busy. Owen hasn't been very alert today. I hope it's just part of the healing process. He's having trouble focusing his eyes. They look a little cross eyed. He can make out how many fingers you hold up from a close distance though. He asked for a cookie and a brownie today and asked me to sing "My Grandfather's Clock"...his favorite song.

I know this is a car forum but everyone seems to stand behind its members when personal tradity strikes. If I misspell some words here please forgive me...I'm not in the best frame of mind right now.

At this moment, my beautiful little 3 year old boy is in emergency surgery. They found a mass in his brain earlier today. I'm very numb right now. I'm not a praying man but I know a lot of you are. Please keep him in your thoughts.

The sureon just came in a so far Owen is doing fine. He should be out of surgery soon. The next week is going to be critical.

Darren


Darren, sorry to hear about this, Feel free to ask to the Lord for help with your son even if you are not a praying man, it will bring you comfort,and bless your son and family, we will keep him in our prayers also

Yup whenever it gets to him is great. Let me know if there's anything else I can do.

Good news indeed! In your OP you said you were not a man of prayer. You should be now as you've seen the power of praying people first hand. Now it's time for prayers of thanks. God is good ALL of the time!

Owen had a good day yesterday. He is more alert all the time. His eyes seem to be improoving too. He's moving around more in bed and saying he wants to go home.

Yesterday wasn't a good day for me however. I was still feeling good about the surgery in the morning until the Oncology people came in to introduce themselves. I'm not ready to think about that. I pretty much tried to sleep the entire day.

It looks like Owen might go back into surgery tomorrow to install a permanent shunt in his head. They usually want to keep people in the ICU for a day just to make sure everything is working properly before being moved to the main floor.

With the shunt, he probably won't be able to play football or go out for wrestling. Going on roller coasters probably is a no no as well.
