THE AMAZING CARSON

If you are curious what PET stands for.

This is the semi trailer.

I am a proud Mom! I love all my boys and it totally amazes me how brave they are. Carson had a big day today. We went back for his first follow-up PET and CT scans. We won't have results until Thursday so your continued prayers in his behalf are certainly felt and I know they have helped him. Anyway, Carson HATES needles, I think alittle more than most kids. The IV is what he dreads most about these appointments. He didn't even shed a tear when they put it in today. ( I can't even do that) Today he had his tests done at PCMC (Primary Childrens Medical Center). What an amazing place! Scott, Doug and Ron the nuclear rad tech's were AWESOME! Carson walked away like he had spent the day at Disneyland! He was a little nervous about the PET scan because we told him it was in a semi trailer. It is portable so it can rotate between local hospitals. He thought he would be shut in this cold, metal box and left alone in the dark. He was very surprised that it was just like any other X-ray room with lights, it was warm and Mom got to be with him the entire time. We are so lucky to have such an amazing facility so close to home.

We had a blast in Phoenix. Weather was perfect 75-80 degrees. Lots of baseball both Bandits and MLB! 2 home runs hit by yours truely Jaxon Knight!!!! Fun at the pool and lots more. Prepare for picture overload, In no particular order!

Bob Apadaca, pitching coach for the Rockies, and the Bandits.

Mason always gets stuck sleeping on the floor when we stay in hotels. This trip, on his own, he made it a very positive experience. He discovered he was the perfect size for the closet, so he made his own private room. Every night he would get in the closet and shut the doors and we wouldn't see him until morning.

The park Jaxon played most of his games at was called "The Big League Dreams Park". There were 7 fields all replicas of 7 major league fields. Here is Jaxon in left field of Yankee Stadium.

Easton has started making the funniest faces!

Fun in the pool!
