Thursday Curtis and Johny got a flight to Phoenix Children's hospital.  Curtis has had a little cough and was running a fever.  So for him that means a trip to the hospital...but with Johny's diagnosis of Spinal meningitis it becomes a little more critical.  Both boys had a spinal tap in Show Low, Johny's was positive for Spinal Meningitis, but Curtis' tests have come back negative (what a blessing).   Johny is doing much better and his prognosis looks very good.  Curtis will get to leave the hospital as soon as his ANCs come up a little bit.  Johny will get to come home once he finishes out the antibiotics...10 days total for him.  We are thankful for all our friends and family who have offered help.  We love you so much.
WE are so thankful for the knowledge that our HEAVENLY FATHER is their to strengthen us when he gives us trials.  We are thankful for our other 6 children who are at home with their lives kind of turned upside down but still stay positive and helpful.  We are grateful for Nana and Papa who have taken such good care of them.  We are truly blessed in many ways.  I hope we can learn and grow from these experience in the way our Heavenly Father would like us to.
