Hello everyone. Haley had been complaining of headaches and on Thursday August 20th she grabbed the back of her neck with both hands and cried, "it hurts mommy...it hurts!" with tears streaming down her face. I called the neurosurgeon and got a return call in three minutes telling us to take her to the ER at Hermann in the medical center. The plans for a Friday MRI fell through, but have confirmed for Monday a round of testing matching that of last year. She will receive an MRI, EEG, and SSEP to give the doctors a better picture of what might be wrong. As always, we have taken every facet of this endeavor and given it over to God. If the Bible was wrong about worry I would be 17 feet tall. With my basketball career well out of reach, I am thankful for the peace God gives our family through these trials. He has also greatly blessed us with wonderful family, friends, and a lovingly involved prayer centered church. As I sit here 8 minutes into Saturday, I am watching Haley sleep with a tiny grin on her face and thinking of Michelle and Tiffany. We have always tried to make sure Tiffany does not have to make compromises that would lead her to blame Haley. Michelle took Tiffany to meet her teacher Friday night and will get up early Saturday to start fixing her hair for cheer leading pictures. We were initially a bit disappointed about the delay in testing, but now realize God had a better plan...surprise! (He always does.) Michelle would not have had the peace to spend quality time with Tiffany if the testing took place on Friday. I am very grateful that I don't always get what I think is best. Well, I suppose I will try to get some sleep. (Where was all of this energy when I was driving over 3,000 miles earlier this month? lol) I will post again when some new info comes available.
Love to all,
The Cassidy's
