I never really updated after Benny’s seizure incident, mostly because it’s hard to put into words. We still don’t have answers, and probably won’t until we sit with his doctor on September 11th. We did get an EEG done but Im not so sure they will release those results until we see the Dr. For now, his seizure meds were increased, but by the grace of God, he hasn’t had another episode since. 🙏

We are keeping up with twice a week therapy in Parsons, which for those that don’t know this therapy center is an hour one way, twice a week 🤪 just last week we spent 10 hours in a car driving just to  Bennys appointments. Thankfully for the long KC trip had a nurse with me A. So Travis could work and B. Incase we had anymore episodes. 
We are also doing weekly vision therapy at home, chiropractic daily, and soon a 3-day intensive in Andover. That week we’ll also finish our first round of hyperbaric treatments and start the conversation about what it would take to have one at home. Then in October, back to Indiana we go. God continues to open doors, even when we don’t see the full picture yet.

I’ve been convicted lately about how I live my days—always stretched thin, always planning the next thing instead of being fully present. I feel like I’m constantly at 70% because the other 30% is already consumed with tomorrow’s worries. I’m trying to do better, to steward my time more wisely, and to protect my own mental health so I can keep pouring into our beautiful family.

The truth is, we feel every emotion daily—fear, sadness, gratitude, exhaustion, joy. Some moments the weight of it all is heavy. But then I remember… the Lord has carried us this far, and He isn’t about to stop now. We are so thankful Benny is still here, that he’s making progress, and that we get to witness God’s hand on his life.

We know the hurdles aren’t over. We know the hard days will come. But we also know God is in every detail, and if we don’t stop to see the good, we’ll miss the blessings He’s giving us in the middle of the storm. 

Also if you would, send up an extra prayer for my Mimi, bennys great grandma, she has been in the hospital and we are just praying for her complete healing and to get answers to why she hasn’t felt good for awhile!
