Thank You!! (from Andrew)

I just wanted to say “Thank You!” to everyone who wished us well last weekend, and to all those that kept Andrew in their prayers. Andrew stopped being able to fully use his legs last Tuesday, and after a pediatrician visit and a MRI, we were sent to a neurologist at Primary Children’s Hospital. He was diagnosed with Guillain–BarrĂ© syndrome, but recovered so quickly they never actually put him on any medication. It was a crazy week, and I’m so grateful that he’s okay. According to the doctors, he had a rather miraculous recovery (not that they would use those terms) and shouldn’t be back to normal by now. But, he’s running, jumping, playing, and generally being a 2 year old little boy. They can’t really explain it, other than to note it must have been a really mild case. But, we know the Lord loves us, watches over us, and answers our prayers. Here’s a few photos from our 4th of July celebration, the day after we brought Andrew home from PCMC:

As a side note: We checked in with A’s pediatrician today, and the Doc was happily surprised at how well Andrew is doing. He also said we shouldn’t expect this to happen again. *phew*
