1 more sleep

 Tomorrow Braylon will be here! We will probably have to do a quick outside visit when they get to town, but hoping to get him inside Thursday and Saturday. Sounds like we got the visits approved, but are waiting to hear back on the times/days.

Pax had fun at school group today. They did a STEM project making Christmas trees out of Dots candy and toothpicks. He’s learning to write with his left hand and is doing great.

We received 2 packages today. The one from Aunt Kristen and Uncle Levi were some of our favorite books we read together. They sent us the whole series, we are super excited. Great Aunt Pam sent a bunch of Christmas cookies for the staff that’s been taking care of us. All the nurses and therapists were so grateful.

Paxton continues to blow everyone away with his quick progress. He listens to everything they tell him and is the hardest worker they’ve seen. I’m so incredibly proud of him.

We are beyond excited to have our family together for the first time in almost a month. It’s been so hard on all of us in different ways. 

Thanks to you all. I appreciate the support. ❤️

 Yesterday Pax had his MRI and angiogram. They found a small AVM that caused the bleed. This abnormal vessel will need to be removed. It happens to lie right on the pronunciation speech center of his brain. There is a risk of him have temporary or permanent set backs in his speech with the removal. The neurosurgeon is consulting with other specialists to determine the best way to remove it. The vascular neurosurgeon said it’s close to the surface, which is good. We aren’t sure when the surgery will take place, but it doesn’t sound like this trip. I have a mixture of emotions. On one hand, I’m glad we know the cause and it can be fixed, but the risks are scary. Of course we’ve gotten ice cream since we’ve been here. He was thrilled to see they had Cookie Butter this week. We have an appointment with the rehab doctor today so I’m sure we will be getting more ice cream today. Thanks for keeping us in your thoughts and for all the love and prayers. I will update the blog when I know mo...

Christmas Miracles

 We have some great news…Paxton started walking on his own! He literally went to PT in the morning being helped by his therapists and a hour later came walking back without assistance. He is literally blowing everyone away. So many people have told me that he is the hardest worker they’ve ever had. We are so incredibly proud of him. We kept the secret from Brandon and when he got here tonight, Paxton got up from his wheelchair and walked to give him a hug. Lots of happy tears were shed. He fatigues really quick and still has some work to do to perfect his stride, but he’s crushing it! I tried to upload the videos but I can’t get them to work. I will keep trying. My favorite response is from Eva and Nellie. They sent an awesome video in response, but I can’t get it to upload either. Grrr Bray and Pax were so excited to see each other. They hugged and were so sweet to one another. Bray and I cried as soon as we saw each other. I have a feeling these next few days will go by much too ...
