For those not on Facebook.

Happy Thursday- we are bringing back this page as we have some updates and prayer requests.
1. Wyatt's Asthma has been really bad the last 2 days. Pray he gets some relief this evening so we can all sleep well.
2. A week ago Wyatt had what appeared to be a blind seizure while in speech class at school. We have an eeg scheduled next week. Followed by a neurology appt the following week. Please pray this all checks out well.
3. Most importantly over the last few weeks we found out the need for Wyatt to have his bone graft for his jaw was more immediate as he has no space in his mouth to breathe. He is breathing primarily through his nose. After further discussion it was decided to have another jaw distraction on the opposite side to losen the mustle and open the mouth wider to make the graft surgery easier. This is the surgery where they use the Red device that prevents him from eating and talking and we a
Screw the pin in each night to widen the mouth. He had this once before and it was so hard on him. After he has this on for 4-6 weeks we will then have the free flap scapula graft where they will take bone from the shoulder to build the jaw. This a long articulate surgery... :( with another 4-6 week recovery. Wyatt has decided to get it done now in hopes to be recovered by end of June and enjoy the rest of summer. He has been very nervous about this for a couple weeks which is hard. We gave him pros and cons for when and let him decide. His teacher at school is amazing and offered to come to the home for his in home schooling 2 hours a week through the end. The first  surgery is now scheduled in ohio with Dr. Gordon april 18th, we will leave the 17th for orientation and to get settled. We have to work out care for the other 4 boys for a week but the rest of the recovery we will do from home. There are a lot of variables that need to work to make this work out accordingly. We still need one more ctscan next week of the scapula and approvals... please pray it all comes together like it always does and peace for Wyatt and the family as everyone cares ans worries for eachother.
We will keep you updated as more information comes available.
4. We have decides to celebrate Wyatts bday april 14th so he can enjoy cake and ice cream with friends and famiy before surgery.
Sorry for the book and thanks ahead of time for prayers. #blessed
