Happy Father's Day to all! Troy is having the best Father's Day! Kade is peacefully resting and Hanna is being such a sweetie! Kade had a great night, and also got a bath. His hair needed a good washin'! It is clean and soft again. Everyone comments on how good he looks--YEAH!! He has lost 2 lbs, it is a noticeable difference. Surgery is still on for tomorrow. We have enjoyed these last couple of days of rest for his little body, but we know that surgery tomorrow is a step forward towards his recovery.
Kade's plans for today include getting a new Central line. He had "cut down" IVs from Lincoln in both of his ankles that have both now failed. The nurses were impressed at how long they lasted for as much as they have pushed through them. The new Central line will have 3 access points, where as the current one only has 2. They will probably put the Pick line in tomorrow while in the operating room. Kade certainly does not like to give up his veins!! The nurse last night tried 3 different spots for a standard IV with no luck. They hate to use him as a "pin cushion" and so do I, but they need more access for all of the meds that he requires.
Grandma and Grandpa Loseke are here today. Uncle Scott and Aunt Audrey are planning visits also. Troy and Hanna are planning on doing something special for the day, but they have not yet decided what.
Thank you again for all of the prayers, letters, cards, gifts and FOOD!! We are truly blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful people. We appreciate it more than words could ever express! Kade is one lucky little boy to have so many pulling for him!!

Troy, I am glad that you had a good fathers day!! Just wanted to let you know my family and I are still praying for little Kade! Happy to hear that he is doing so good! We had a little neice in chilrens three years ago for six weeks, and my brother-in-law and sister-in-law stayed at the rainbow house also. They too could not say enough nice things about it! What floor are you guys on in Childrens? Thanks for all the posts and God Bless!
