STILL NO NEWS!!!!
Good evening.

I am so very frustrated! I did hear from Connie a week and an half ago, and she said that there was no nuclear med tech at Children's......we already knew that but we couldn't tell her that. I have been in contact with Christine, the one who has always given David his bone scans, and I knew there wasn't a tech. I mentioned some changes that have happened at Children's, and Christine not being there is one of them. I am so sad about that. Anyway, Connie said that she would set everything up at Renown and she would call me back when she knew. Well, I haven't heard from her, so I called again on Friday. No answer, so I left ANOTHER message for her to call me. She hasn't called yet, so I will be calling again tomorrow. This is ridiculous! I am so frustrated. We are over 5 months since David's last scans, and over a year since his last echo (he has to have an echo every year). Please pray that I can get a hold of Connie and I can get some answers! Thanks.

David is doing ok, but he is coughing, which concerns us. That is another reason why he really needs the scans so we can see what is going on. The cough is worrisome to us. Other than that, he is doing ok. His leg still bothers him sometimes, but it always will. And now that we are really cold, his knee hurts. He still has a limp, always will. He is eating ok, but not great. I made pepper jack mac for him because he eats a lot (relatively speaking) of it because he loves it. Tonight I made white chili because he loves that, too. He had two bowls of chili tonight! Then he had a piece of my apple pie! Rachel and I have been making apple pies, and we have 7 in the freezer, I baked one tonight, I baked one yesterday, and there is still one waiting to be baked tomorrow for Jeremy and Lucy. We are set for apple pies for the holidays!! I like having my 'baking buddy' (Rachel) bake with me. Anyway, David is doing ok. He isn't sleeping very well, however. I don't know what that is all about. Please pray that we can get the scans so we can find out what is going on. After the scans David will have his oncology appointment and we will chat about these issues. Thanks.

Our weather is beautiful! We have had a couple days of snow, and it is still lingering in the backyard. Our front faces south, so the snow melts from the front first; which also includes our driveway! YAY! It is nice to have a driveway that the snow melts from! Anyway, it has been cold, so I am glad we have firewood.

I hope to have more news for you soon! Please pray that I can get some answers! Thanks. Please pray for Rachel, an osteo child in our osteo family. She is David's age, just a few weeks younger. She is struggling big time. She has more tumors in her arm, lungs, and she is in pain. Please pray that they can get her pain under control. This poor child has been fighting this monster for 6 years! Please keep her in your prayers. Thank you.

Thank you for visiting and checking in on David and the Koury Klan. Have a good evening. God bless you all. We love you.
