Cody Update

I just wanted to update readers (who read this) about Cody. He is doing better. Fortunately, after a consult with an oral surgeon yesterday, he will not need surgery. The bones that were broken/crushed from the golf club incident are the same ones the surgeon would break for a reconstruction, so they will just allow them to heal in place. Cody was quite depressed after this incident, so we continue to pray for this little 7 year old!

The downside to all this is that in the separation agreement, Cody's dad was to have him this week. It's a messy situation, but his father came anyway, despite the warnings, and took him back to SC after the appointment. Doctor's orders were for Cody, who hadn't eaten anything since last Friday, to be on a bland, soft diet, so daddy stopped to get him a cheeseburger on the way home. You can pray even more about this!! mostly, that Cody wouldn't return next week with an infection. This would be extremely bad as Cody's dad decided to save himself a little money and cancelled not only his soon-to-be ex-wife's dental insurance, but also his children's dental insurance, without informing anyone. So, Cody is uninsured at this present time.

Your prayers are appreciated in this matter. I told Cody's grandma, my mom's best friend, about my big fat lip and about our prayers for Cody. She believes they helped - I think she knows this. Of course, my mom has taken this opportunity to SHOP for a gift for Cody - any excuse to hit the stores, so I'm off!! again!! Hopefully, some of those not so nice shoppers are back to work today!
