update

Kenner had a great day today! He is still on a vent and is in a medical induced coma, BUT he didn't have a fever all day, his white blood count that fights the bacteria went to 25 from 100, his heart rate was around 100-110, and his rash is GONE! We will still wait to hear for snoring coming from a leak in his throat. His throat or vocal cords is/are swollen, so it will just take time for the inflamation to go down in order to get off a vent.

The doctors are very positive and tell us it is just a waiting game. Keep the prayers coming. THEY ARE WORKING!

Good night! (another positive I got to sleep for 3-4 hours in his room today!...so that could be a reason why I have such a positive outlook too...sleep does wonders.

Thanks for visiting Grandpa Dennis, Grandma Kelly, Uncle Levi, Aunt Lucy, Uncle Craig, Uncle Trevor and Aunt Kendra, Aunt Annie, Jenny Piening, and THANKS to Grandma Carlece for taking Patton today. Patton is in Aurora with Casey's parents. He tried to move Kenner's bed and pull a few things today, which almost sent me over the edge:) Praise that he is active:)

Also HUGE PRAISE for the 15 year old boy who was waiting on an MRI to see if he had brain activity. They got the results back and he is awake!! AMEN!

Thanks to all the visitors yesterday, Grandpa Pat, Craig, Kendra, Trevor, Carlece, Annie, and many others.

Love you all - Rhiannon

Kenner,
Why you? Aunt Annie is having a hard time today thinking about you, little guy! I read many blogs and never in the world would I think I would be posting prayers for you, you are too healthy!... it just doesn't seem fair. Just so you know you haven't been out of my mind or prayers since you got sick. Continue having good days and continue fighting that bad infection! You are doing great and keep it up. We can't wait till we can play games together. We are keeping you close in our prayers Kenner! Everyone at my work are praying for you as well. We all love you more than you can believe! My tears are for... why not me and not you. I wish it were me and not you in that little hospital bed. Keep fighting buddy! Can't wait to play with you soon!
Lots of love!
Aunt Annie
