Progress?…

Thank You Lord!

Sean apparently is not leaking air out of his right lung anymore and so the displaced air has begun absorbing back into his body Therefore, his right lung is gaining more room to inflate.

Still concerned about a place that shows up on the X-Ray…but hopeful that once his lung is inflated to 100% that he will be better able to deal with it. And that God will just heal it!

Sean looks good… we are sooo glad!

We’ve been told that the culvert that we have to build across the ravine, is something that we have to dance with the state about. Not sure what that means except more time and hoops to jump through. Hoping it turns out to be simple and not as expensive as it threatens to be.

Had a good man from Hermitage Heat and Air look at the duct work on the existing house…and he gave some incredible insight as to what might be giving us such a struggle as of late.

First let me clarify…this house and the previous house we were in, are places that plenty of other families have lived in without the kinds of problems we have had. Cystic Fibrosis is the reason for our struggle. I want to say that both of the owners of these two places are good people and have done more than what would be reasonably expected of them to make things right.

We need to re-build the duct work for the return vent on this system. Insulated fiber board was used and is still commonly used for this application…but it is no good for us! Also, the unit is too much unit for this house which lends itself to generating more condensation in the housing therefore causing more of a possibility for mold.

Who’da thunk?

We will hopefully have him correct the situation with the duct work in the next 3 weeks.

Will have to install a special light in the housing that will kill any mold as the air passes through.

We will be here for the foreseeable future and we have to make it healthy here and any where we go. We’ve been asked about moving to another house, another state…

Wherever we go has to be dealt with… with our special needs in mind. That is why I need to build a special house from the ground up.

Thanks again for checking in on us. Let us know you were here.
