Today is day 5 of Will having no pain. This means the medicine that they have put him on seems to be working. Miles has sure been happy to have his brother back and running around! We may have gotten a little over zealous the other day as I called to tell the nephrologist and the Urologist, They both seemed to have the same response... "That is wonderful BUT we are not out of the woods, expect ups and downs and most likely another bad episode, because he has yet to pass a lager stone that was causing pain" This was a tad bit disheartening but we are thanking the Lord for everyday with or without pain! I taught VBS this past week, and the them? "NO MATTER WHAT TRUST GOD" and "NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD" Two things the Lord drilled into my heart and mind as I was teaching it to the kindergarteners. I love how are God works. Well I know this is short but wanted to put that praise out to you! Enjoy your weekend and I will write again soon! Love for us all, Heather

Little Will

Prayer for Will
Hello Friends and Family,
I am sitting in bed, it is almost midnight and I am searching for answers and asking for prayer...
Many if not all of you know about Will and the pain he has been in. The pain started a few months ago and at times I feel like we should just move in with Wills most trusted Dr. Veresa, we are always on the phone or in her office, trying to figure this out. she has been so wonderful and going above and beyond, but we are all stumped as to why his calcium levels are so high in his urine. (even with medication) He is developing calcium crystals (small stones) almost weekly and anyone who has had Kidney stones knows the pain that goes along with this. He is growing tired of doctors offices, hospitals, specialist, blood work etc. It has been so hard to see him in such pain and Shannon and I are seeking God for wisdom and grace through this season he has us in. We are seeing two new specialist in July and I am hopeful they might have some answers. Today has been a tough one, he passed at least one stone that I saw and he seemed to feel a lot better, but has been waking up screaming tonight... holding him, heating pads and medicine seem to help for a few hours, but he is moaning and waking up shaking and crying. My heart is heavy and I am finding it hard to sleep, so I am asking you all to lift him up to the one who loves him WAY more than we ever could. I know He holds his tears (and ours) in a bottle and knows our tossing and turning. So many scriptures come to mind right now, that bring comfort, peace and a knowledge that the God of this universe holds us in his hands!
We want to walk through this with hands opens, hearts devoted to our King, and shinning as a light set on a hill, for His glory, if we don't this is all in vain!
The wonderful thing that I have seen through Wills pain, is compassion for those who are hurting, sick and even sad... He can pick them out in a crowd. I am thankful for such a tender heart that God already is molding into his likeness. He is a very special young man and I know God has a huge plan in store for him.
Thank you for praying and standing with us through these tough times.
We love you, Shannon, Heather, Will and Miles <3
