Last Thursday, we got a call that our little 6 year old grandson, Walker, was not well. They did a scan here and saw a brain tumor. He was flighted that night to Children's Hospital in Denver with his mom. His dad, brother, Bob and I flew down early the next morning commercial. At the hospital they were able to stop the brain swelling with steroids, study an MRI and he had surgery on Monday, August 31. They do not know yet if the tumor, which was quite large, was malignant or benign. They will know that the first of next week as well as the plan for treatment.
Today is Thursday - a week from that day. Walker is not progressing as well following the surgery as the surgeon had hoped. Please think of him and send strength to him and his family.
Bob and I came home with Weston, his brother, late last night. We will get Weston into school tomorrow. It is kind of like a nightmare that just keeps going on and on.
I know there is a long road ahead and I know the road will have good days and bad days. But I just pray that Walker can get well and enjoy years of good life.
I will write more later.
