My Story

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We've created it to keep friends and family updated about our loved one. Get started by reading the introduction to our website, My Story.

Greg had been sick the last few days.  After having a seizure this morning, the paramedics took him to the hospital.  After a CT scan, they determined he has a severe case of meningitis.  He was put into surgery to have part of his skull removed to release some pressure in his brain. As of right now, there are many unknowns, so please keep Greg, Jennie, Nevaeh and family in your thoughts and prayers.

Update on Surgery

May 11, 2013 12:18pm

Greg's surgery took about 1 1/2 hours.  Everything went great.  One sinus was very impacted with gunk, so the surgeon sent in to have culture done.  Please pray there is no infection.  He has had a lot of pain, but it is under control.  Please pray that he quits sneezing. He goes back to the Dr. next Thursday to have packing taken out. Thank you God for the blessings.

Everyday we look for Gods beauty and laughter, he always provides this even when we are walking through a storm.  So below is some laughter:

Jennie was with Nevaeh in a public bathroom and there were people in it.  Nevaeh was in a stall with mommy and asks mommy if she has any medicine to help clear up her gonorrhea.  She has trouble saying diarrhea.  Jennie was needless to say, embarrassed, but it has brought lots of laughter to us.

When Greg sneezes right now, he has to sneeze with his mouth open.  Last night we had corn on the cob and cut his off the cob so he could eat it.  Well,......... he sneezed 5 times and shared his corn with us,   then again, 5 times, more corn.  Poor Greg didn't get to eat much corn. Lucky Dan sat across from him.  Even with the laughter it was hard to watch him sneeze, lots of pain and it caused more bleeding.  Again he is doing well.

We are asking for prayer for Greg's memory.  The baby is due in July and we would like prayer for him to remember how to take care of him. 

Last night was a blessing as we all were able to feel the little guy wiggle a lot in mommy's tummy.  We also were listening to him with the stethoscope.  I had a good conversation with him.  I asked him if he has lots of hair and he kicked, so we assume that was a yes.

Greg's fund for speech had run dry, wouldn't you know it, God blessed the fund.  We are all so thankful as this has helped to continue with extra speech and he is continually improving.  He goes to the hospital 2 times a week for speech and then has a very special person help 3 times a week 

We are so thankful for all your prayers, love and encouragement.  It is difficult at times and we still need your love.  Jennie's plate is still so full.  She just added desert to her plate with the new little baby coming. 

Love each one of you and appreciate you all.

God Is Good All The Time
