Hospital Stay

Just wanted to give everyone an update and story of what happened to Korbyn.

We are in the Little Rock Children's Hospital...and have been since Monday.

Korbyn had a little fall on Sunday night and had a seizure. They say he fell because of the seizure, not he had the seizure because he fell. He has been on seizure medicine since Tuesday, and it is making him EXTREMELY HYPER! He is jumping off the sides of his crib. However he is pretty wobbly, the seizure affected his balance. So we went backwards a little bit in his attemp to learn to walk. He seems a little better at keeping his balance today....expect us to be here a few more days, because they did a chest x-ray and found he has pneumonia. In the MRI, they found a virus that spread to his brain, which they call Encephalitis. He seems to be acting like his self...other than the standing. And he is wobbly when he sits too. Curtis came in from his deployment on Tuesday. Thank God for that...I was a wreck handling it without him. Watching him go through so many painful tests.

Please keep him in your prayers. If I find out anymore I will be sure and let you know.

We love you all.

Love,
Brittany, Curtis, and Korbyn

PS. I am at the hospital and have no way of putting pictures on here....will get some as soon as we get out.

Standing....

Korbyn finally started pulling up all the way to his feet...before it was just to his knees. I can't believe the progress he has made in just the last few weeks....he has started clapping, waving, saying a few words ("dada"-only twice, "mama"-only once, "hi"-when he waves, "yay"-everytime he claps almost) crawling, pulling up, and now pulling up to stand. Everything he goes to now, he stands up. I am so proud of him! Also, he just got his room back....Travis has been deployed overseas, and so he moved all his stuff to storage, and Korbyn now has his own room. He is sleeping fine...I am not! Ha! I wasn't so excited about the idea of him not being right next to me in his crib anymore..and the move to his own room was a bit sad for me (but I am holding up fine). He has been sleeping in his own room for 3 days now, and with the monitor right beside me, I am at peace. His most favorite thing about having his own room is the mirrors that are in it. He loves to see himself in the mirror, and he kisses himself all the time..
