Ears, Nose Throat check-up at UCLA

At Caiden's ears, nose, throat appointment today the Dr. put a scope with a camera down each of his nose holes.  It was very unpleasant for him and he let her know.  She said that one side has stayed open nicely, but the other side needs to be opened again.  He will go back to the O.R. Sept. 6th to have his airways stretched again.  The Dr. had warned us that it could take 2 or 3 times.  He will have an over night stay again.  We will take his portable oxygen with us this time so they can release him after staying 1 night.  

Here is a picture of him with fresh tomatoes, and plums from the garden.  No, he's not eating any better so please pray for that.  We offer him everything, but he doesn't eat any of it.

Caiden's Hope helps U.S. Military Fisher House at Ft. Hood, Texas

Caiden's Hope was recently able to make a $2000 donation to Fisher House located on the U.S. military base at Ft. Hood, Texas thanks to our supporters.

Fisher House Manager Isaac Howard said that "it is times like this in which soldiers need all the help they can get.  Your contribution to the Fort Hood Fisher House helps provide the necessary items need to povide a home away from home for the soldiers and their loved ones during a family medical crisis.
We do not know how we could manage to make the Fisher House as it is without the contributions made by the kind and caring supporters of Caiden's Hope". 

Within walking distance of the hospital Fisher House is a comfortable temporary home, filled with warm, caring people who help family members endure the stresses associated with a loved one's serious medical condition. The Fisher House enables families to stay together, cook meals, do laundry, and relax in a "home away from home" atmosphere. There are no other facilities on military installations which provide this caring, compassionate environment.
