Home Again Home Again, Jiggity Jig


He is home!!!!!  After 6 1/2 months of illness, 2 medevacs, losing the ability to walk, double vision and blindness in one eye, (lost count) doctor appointments, (again too many to count) blood pulls and IVs, 1 IVIG, 6+ MRIs, 2 spinal taps, 3 Physical Therapy sessions, 15 days in 2 different hospitals, in 2 different countries, 4 months of medication, 3 months living with Grandma, 1 month waiting for clearance, 6 flights (2 of which he flew solo, including the one back home). and millions of prayers and fasts he has made it home!!!!

The official diagnosis. . . unknown.  

We made it through this time due to our HUGE support system!  Friends, family, acquaintances, and even perfect strangers went out of their way to provide help, information, doughnuts, moral support, places to stay, food to eat, love, hugs, phone calls, blessings, rides, cars, visits (I even had a cousin who flew in from Australia to visit for a few hours before flying back home again!) and gifts.  If you are reading this I am talking about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ were aware of us and sent angels our way.  It is due to their mercy and love that Duncan has been able to fully recover.

The other boys find it hard to be sympathetic as they were stuck here at home going to school.  We tell them if they are willing to go through the same treatment then maybe we'll consider letting them have the same experience.
Thank you!!!  Thank you!!! Thank you!!!
