    The Ant

    I recieved this in an e-mail. Brenda was almost halfway to the top of the tremendous granite cliff. She was standing on a ledge where she was taking a breather during this, her first rock climb. As she rested there, the safety rope snapped against her eye and knocked out her contact lens...

    Brian's next surgery is Oct. 2nd at 7:00 am and is very serious. When I'm not so tired I will post further details but there is a slight risk he won't survive this one. They told us that two surgeries ago but the doctor really stressed that possibility with this surgery. I know I don't have to...

    Hello!!

    It's been awhile since I posted and just wanted to say hello. Things have been hectic around here the last year with no let-up in sight. Between working 2 jobs and dr. appointments I don't have much spare time anymore. But, if Brian can stay in school I will have some time to go digging when...

    Minor surgery this morning...

    ...Brian had tubes put in his ears because fluid built up in them due to his tumors. He had to have the TV turned all the way up to hear it. After he awoke this morning and was aware of his surroundings, I mouthed "How do you feel?", just joking around with him. His response? "Dad...don't...

    Gone fish'in...

    After dropping Sarah off at work this morning we went to Cove Lake State Park to drown a few worms. Brian still isn't walking with the stiff cast so MD'ing is out for awhile. It was a beautiful morning and we managed to catch a bluegill and a couple of crappie. I got one small crappie. Now...

    Back in ER today...

    ...it started out a beautiful day. I took Brian and his best friend Garrett(human) to the park to MD a little (can you believe 3 days in a row?) this morning. They found a few pennies then lost interest and played pirates or some such imaginitive game so I swung the Garrett (metal detector) for...

    Eyeball find...

    ...took the trash down to the road for pick-up and found this ring beside the road. At first I thought the stones could have been small diamonds but looking at the pic they appear to be glass. [attachment 62950 IMG_0802cropeditir.jpg] But it is stamped 10k. [attachment 62951...

    Took my favorite detector buddy digging today....

    ...we hit a few parks. He would swing and I would dig until he got too tired to swing and then we switched. First, we went to Adair Park and Brian found a few pennies and then his second cross!! [attachment 62847 IMG_0768cropeditir2.jpg] Here's the cross. [attachment 62848...

    Got out a little today.

    Took Brian to the park to let him play and get a little fresh air and time out of the house. His cousin went too and they played with toys on some large exposed rocks. He fractured his left tibia Saturday night and isn't used to his new cast yet so he still can't walk. Since he couldn't detect...

    We're home!!!

    And plum wore out! Surgery went better than expected yesterday and Brian was released today. His doctor said he has never released a patient from ICU before! We never got a regular room. He was amazed at how fast Brian recovered and all the nurses were amazed that he quit taking pain meds this...

    Update on the surgery....

    ...it was smooth sailing this time and we got an added bonus. Because the tumor in his right cheekbone was causing Brian pain the surgeon said he would make a small incision to see what was causing the pain. The tumor had grown so much it was stretching the skin so he debulked that tumor also...

    ...Surgery scheduled for tomorrow at 11am...

    ...at Vanderbilt in Nashville. We have to check in at 9am so will hit the road at around 5:30am. This surgery is on Brians jaw, the tumor you see in his pictures and should only last a couple of hours. The doc said to expect to be there 3-5 days. This surgery isn't as serious as the last one and...

    Thanks for the phone call Mike from Mi. !!!

    I'm sorry I missed your call but I was at work and the phone was in my van charging! I was going to call you back this evening but we had to run to the store and I was afraid it might be too late to call when we got back. Brian seems to be doing fine, no blood since this morning. When we put...

    Prayer request please!!!

    Brian woke up this morning with a lot of blood in his trach. He isn't in any pain but this amount of blood is abnormal. I have a call into his doctor for guidance as far as where I should take him, to the office or to the hospital. Thanks,

    Another blessing and the only reason I can't make the forum hunt this year.

    My boss gave me the time off to go and my wife gave me the green light to go and I was ready to pack my bags and then I was reminded of another fundraiser that was scheduled for Saturday June 2nd. It is being hosted by my brothers church, the same church that built our deck. They came out and...

    Took an hour out to dig a little this morning...

    ...around the house. Boy, I struck out, finding only trash. The previous owner loved roses because I found a couple of aluminum tags thay used to put on the bush's. Oh yeah, I also recovered one of Brians Hot Wheel cars by the edge of the driveway. The ground is hard as concrete and cracking...
