Our Family
Tuesday, March 8, 2011
We have had quite of bit going on since my last post. We are now dealing with some more health issues with Dalton, some unexpected ones, that we are praying do not alter his lifestyle. I took him to Riley hospital Friday in desperation looking for some answers to his stomach problems and came out with a bigger problem that we didnt expect. He has developed significant Scoliosis complicated by his malformed vertebrea he was born with. We will see a spine specialist Wed. and hopefully get a prognosis and plan. But I am expecting to have further testing before we know to much, with Congenital Scoliosis sometimes the heart, Kidney and lungs can be affected so I imagine they will have to look at those organs as well, Dalton is very concerned about how this all will affect his Motocross career.......he cannot imagine his life without it....frankly neither can we.....but his health is our number 1 priority, we are hoping for the best, please keep him in your prayers. Emotionally this is reaping havoc on us all! On a brighter note I took the girls to the Illinois Horse fair Sat. they always enjoy their time around horses, however I would have to say we Hoosiers have a much better program..........No offence Illinois people!! We enjoyed seeing our Friesian friends, we only wish they had more time to spend conversing with us.........Hunter was soooo looking forward to helping warm up the mares, but I believe they all were to stressed out to remember this. So we stayed to watch their performance and then headed home, the 4 hour drive there was OK, but the drive home was kinda hairy as it was spitting ice all the way, I was never sooo glad to see my muddy driveway in my life! We are still waiting to hear from the Academy to see if Kenzie makes it in, we could sure use some good news about now!! Work has helped me keep my mind off things so thank goodness for that! The girls and I have been planning a trip to Kentucky to take some riding lessons so if all goes as planned we will be going with some friends over spring break and taking Sassy, and Bentley! We are getting spring fever it has been nice to see the sun shine the couple of days it has peeked through. If the Dr. OKs it Dalton has his first race of the season this Sat. and then that night he Kenzie and Bill will go to Lucas Oil Stadium and watch Supercross they are super pumped for that, and then race again the next day......they are gonna be exhausted come Monday morning, I am hoping that this will all help Dalton keep his mind off of things, however it will be up to the Dr.s if he is allowed to do any of this.......We are praying for Good News. It is soo hard when your child is going through something and you cannot help them. Being the mom I always want to make it better for him, and I cant this time and it is driving me absolutely nuts!
