Blake is doing great and so far everything is looking good today. The swallow testing facility is really booked today, so one concern is that they will not be able to do the test for Blake today. The other night, however, Becky & Chad met a woman who works in that department (it's a small world) on the Trax when they were headed to the Jazz game. She is trying to get them in today! If it doesn't happen today, then they will have to do it Monday since that department does not do testing over the weekends. Another issue was that they were having a difficult time finding anyone in Ely who could provide the necessary equipment for Blake's trach tube. There are adults in Ely who have trach tubes, but for some reason no one wanted to supply or couldn't supply pediatric needs. Thankfully, a very kind woman from Ely worked it out with her boss in Vegas to take care of Blake's needs. This was very very much appreciated because without the proper equipment, Blake would not be able to go home to Ely. We would like to extend a huge THANK YOU to Mrs. Ramero for making it possible for Blake to be properly taken care of at home!!!

Also, Jared completed the grouting project around our shower this morning! While I am writing in the blog I should also take time to tell everyone how amazing he is! Since we purchased this home Jared has: Cleaned, torn up all of the flooring, installed a toilet,tiled the kitchen, bathroom, entry way, laundry area (including a crawlspace door), pantry floor, fireplace area, and the shower surround. He also built a pantry...with shelves and everything (I am still impressed)! He has also dealt with a lot of unforeseen issues such as a rotting subfloor in the bathroom, mold in the laundry area, uneven walls/floors, and an electrical problem with the well pump. He is amazing, and since he would never write about himself in the blog...I thought I should let everyone know. I love you, Jared.
