Brodie's New Bed
It has been an eventful past couple of days. Brodie has been doing well and has stayed the same the past couple of days. The big news has been his move to a crib. This is so great for him and now he has some things to look at. He has a mobile and an aquarium that he can look at now. I can't imagine how much better this is for him to look at than the ceiling. He also wears clothes occasionally and is starting to be more like a normal baby. He just looks so good lately. We had a meeting with the doctors yesterday and we decided that the trach was the best way to go for Brodie. We are very scared and no parent would like this for their son but if it will give him the best chance for development then we need to do it. The surgery will be on Monday or Wednesday of next week so will keep you posted. Next week will be a difficult one for us but we know that we can make it through anything at this point. In our meeting yesterday you could tell that a month ago the doctors never would have dreamed that we would be in this position. Brodie is truly our miracle baby and we know that each day we have with him is a blessing. I know we would not be here without the prayers of each of you and we would not be as sane as we are without your support. Thanks so much for everything and PLEASE continue to pray for Brodie and our family.

Congratulations! I would definitely call Brodie a miracle baby. He has come such a long way and I am so happy for his progress. I will pray that all goes well with the surgery. Just know that whatever decisions you made, God was right there with you making the decisions with you. You are all so strong. You never know how strong you are until you have to be. Brodie is such a fighter and has come so far. I'm so happy for you and so proud of him! We will continue to pray for Brodie and you both.
The new pics of Brodie are great...he looks fantastic!! He is so adorable!!

SO happy to see pictures of your beautiful baby boy!! I can see such improvement, and I am happy to hear the good news! God bless you & your family!
Oh, Todd, what a cute baby boy you and LaVona have! Thank you for the updated pictures. I'm sitting here weeping at how far you all have come and am giving thanks for
G-d's infinite mercy...dare I say I want more for Brodie and all of you? Yes, I dare! May the surgery provide the blessings of growth and continued healing for Brodie. I will continue to ask our church to pray for all of you. As I wear Brodie's bracelet and turn it often throughout the day I am praying for all of you. I just opened my promise book to this verse: "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart," says the LORD. Jeremiah 1:5 I believe G-d has great things planned for you and your entire family. I believe the LORD smiles when you call Brodie your miracle baby--shows
G-d's ownership, eh? xxoo Fran
