It was such an honor to be apart of Carson's Wiffle Ball Tournament yesterday. You have a community that loves your family so much! We all wish there was more that we could do for your family. Please know we are doing what we all know is best - praying. Not only is Carson being lifted up but so is your family, doctors, nurses, and anyone who comes into contact with y'all during this time. My prayer is that God will put His loving arms around each of you, guide the doctors' and nurses' hands as they operate, and give them amazing amounts of wisdom on how to take care of Carson. I've always been a believer that "He who brings you do it, will bring you THROUGH it"! As Carson is in surgery remember the Lord is holding you both tight in his loving arm. It is time to let Him carry you all through this. That is what He is there for. I love you so very much and look forward to seeing the Braun Bunch back at school and being "normal" like Cameron wants.

We love you and miss you and are praying. God Bless!

So Happy Belated Birthday! I am so sorry about the results and will be praying for all of the tumor to be removed. Carson has been fighting and winning for 6 1/2 years - he's not going to give up now! Love you all,

We were so glad to see our boys on Saturday. I am glad that we got to have pizza & cake. I promise you that Aunt Nesie has more presents coming for you in the mail. Carson's Toy Story cake was very tasty & so was Cameron's football cake. I couldn't be rude, so I ate some of each. Carlee & Kayleigh were so glad to see you and get to play with Landry, Jackson and Cooper. And then Nana surprised everyone with her new dog!!! That was just crazy, wasn't it boys. At first I thought your Mommy was going to be mad at Nana for bringing you guys a dog & then when I looked at the doggy I really got my big surprise. No wonder we all got so quite. Baby Girl is Charley's sister and looks just like him!!! It is like a gift from Heaven for Nana to have this doggy. She has missed Charley so bad & I know you boys did too. So what a great surprise! We will see you and play again before you go back to Memphis & I promise to bring more gifts. We love you boys.

Hey, Ginger...
The Groves Family is down here in Orlando, but thinking about the Braun Family way up there in Memphis. Praying it's a "no biggie"! I know that fear. I know that drop in the pit of your stomach! But I also know God can change that in a split second! Be strong. We got your back!

Go Carson!
I laughed at the gas mask story, because the mask is Easton's FAVORITE part of the St. Jude trip. We are going next week, and he's already been asking about it. Oh my! And the snow photo scared me a little, although I know E and Gary would think it's great.
Hope the boys had a great birthday!

It's very cold, but we missed the sleet and icy roads and had a small amount of snow that maybe the boys enjoyed seeing. Glad to get the quick update. Does this mean Carson missed OT, PT, and Speech appointments altogether since he went to sleep? Hoping for good MRI results.

I am so happy to hear that the boys are doing well and dealing with annoying yet "normal" childhood illnesses. I just received my holiday catalog and noticed the Carter and Carson Bears on the back page. I assumed that it could not be my Carter because I figured someone at St. Jude would have notified me, but out of curiosity I called the 1 800 number and asked the lady to read me the tag. Sure enough it was a story about my Carter with a picture. I just wanted to let you know to check and see if it is your Carson and not assume that you would be notified if it was. We will be bringing the kids to Memphis for the race in December. Pat is running the half and I will run the wimpy 5k because that is all that I can handle. Hope to see you there!
Gretchen Morris <gsmorris@cox.net>

I have to check your site more reguarly. I'm so sorry all this scary stuff has been going on. I've been thinking about you and now I know why (I thought it was because of the hurricane weather). Glad it was just a shunt malfunction - I know your mind was going into the what ifs....Glad to read of all the progress he has been making and hopefully now that the shunt malfunction is fixed, school can be the primary focus for all of you.

I'm so proud of Carson and all that is his accomplishing - I know there were times you wondered if he would ever do the things Cameron could do - he just had to do them in his time frame, didn't he?! By now, school might be out - so enjoy the summer!!! I wish we could get our boys together - Robert would love to run and play with C&C.

Carson you looked GREAT at school yesterday -- and eating pizza like crazy, too!!! I'm so proud of you!!!

Cameron, I sure hope you're feeling better, now... I know alot of people who've had the flu this year (and some of them even had the flu shot and still got it) -- I know that was really yucky, huh...

Good to see you Ginger yesterday, too!! I talked to one of the subs a few weeks ago who was really complimenting you on how you've been able to get that group of kids back in line and re-focused!!

So glad to get the "all clear" on Carson - we have been checking! I am having trouble adjusting to new people too...didn't feel the results were "official" until Dr. Gajjar e-mailed us - from India! It was so great to see you all, I'm glad we're on the same schedule lately. Next time we'll have to request to be evacuated to the same area of the Grizzlies House - HA!

Praying for a smooth transition as you return to work. I love teaching Kindergarten, but it sure is a lot of extra work. I'm praying you find easy ways to juggle family needs and work needs while still finding time to meet your own needs!!!! You sure will be a blessing to those smiling faces each day.

Is there any better reward for all your work and worry than to go to a restaurant and ORDER OFF THE MENU for EVERYONE????? What a priceless memory!

Best wishes in the new job!!

Love the new picture -- the bump on the head (lookin' much better) is just visual proof that Mr. Carson is on the MOVE!!! He's not letting anything (including a concrete driveway) hold him back!!!

We had an awesome time in Memphis (the girls are still talking about Carson & Cameron and Jenny put a picture of the boys on our home computer as the "screensaver") -- I've got some pictures from the weekend I need to send you --

Miss you guys and I hope P.T. is going great!!

Guess when I don't check frequently I get more updates. Sorry about the growth hormone deficiency problem and that you will have to give him the shots - I always hated having to give Helen the "G" shots after her big chemos. But in a way it will be a blessing to be giving them until he's a 16 or 17 year old. It will mean he's still there to bring you joy (and grief!) So glad Carson is doing well with the other challenges you have been struggling with since treatment days. My helper has arrived so I'll say bye for now.

Well... I guess it's a good thing that Carson's so "hard-headed" afterall!! He needs to be to survive all those bumps!! I'm so glad to hear how well he's doing -- I pray the ER visit went fine.
And as far as the bottle and potty training go... my kids ALWAYS did better for someone else than for me. My mother in law was the one to get each of them off the "binky" -- I just didn't have the heart to take it away!! If your mom can "get him over the hump" then I think you'll have an easier time making it "stick"! Thanks for the update -- I hope to get to see you guys soon. Are you coming to the BPCC 5K?... bring the boys and I can walk with them while you run (I'm willing to make the sacrifice!!)

I know "boys will be boys," but these tumbles always seem to happen at the worst times. (Is there ever a good time?) I hope you were in and out of the hospital quickly. Every parent around is sighing with you re: potty training. They really should give us lessons on that before we're allowed to have kids! Isn't it nice to have updates about regular kid stuff like tumbles and pottying?

You're always in our prayers.

We had jellyfish "issues" when we went to Gulf Shores this summer, too --

I wish we could go back to "no news is good news"! I'm so sorry about the shots, but I'm glad that you'll get a reprieve before you have to start to give them.

Glad to hear that IMOT is going so well, though, and thrilled to hear that Cameron is adjusting to preschool! All my kids loved it there, and I'm great friends with some of the staff members, so I know it will be a great experience for you, too, Ginger!

I can't begin to imagine how exhausting your days are--hang in there, continue to stay strong, and we're praying for you and your family!

Ginger, I can't imagine how exhausting it is to sit for four hours while Carson is in therapy--if they don't put you to work, they're missing a great chance! :D Otherwise, you can just sit and catch up with all the Hollywood gossip and your correspondence! (I'd rather work! LOL!)

Our dream home is beautiful! I think I'm still in shock that we actually won - I wish we could keep it but Darryl doesn't want to commute 3 hours a day! The best part of it is that we are getting to share Helen's story with a new audience - I think she must have been guiding the hand that drew out the name. Maybe you'll win your dream home in August. Will be praying that Carson's tests all go well - they are going to be so proud of the progress he has made. Miss you - we need to work on meeting up someplace. Robert is getting so big and independent. - it would be fun to watch the boys playing together again.

Ginger,

Thanks for stopping by Shae's site and signing in. It was very nice to meet you at Shake 4 Jake. What a wonderful night it was. I know that Don and Staci were so glad that you guys were there.

So glad that Carson is walking and eating...what a blessing!!

Melanie does have a way with children and I know that you are so glad to have her as Carson's therapist.

I am just going to say this once... when "MR.KARrrrrL" gets a few steps out of Carson, the world stops turning. But.... when MISS MELANIE gets him to walk across the room... NOTHING! Nothing!! What is the deal here? Guess I will have to figure out how to attach a video to prove it!

SO proud of him! Melanie

Hey there, busy lady! We go everywhere with some sort of Superhero something on so Carson should wear his light up Mickey ears all the time. Glad you had a great trip - You'll have to find time to scrapbook all those wonderful memories. But that's hard for me to do and I only have to chase Spiderman around. Thanks for continuing to check on me - Nancy

Wow, wow busy lady! Oh my goodness, don't feel like you were negative. You are one of the most busy moms I know who gives it her all for two very busy boys! I hope therapy goes well, sometimes I get a little bummed about all of Louie's therapy & then realize how very very lucky we are just to have his smile. You just want everything other kids have for them so bad. When is Carson's next trip? We are going at the end of June & then move to 6 mos. I hope to see you there one day soon. Hang in there & enjoy your summer....p.s. your schedule explains your slim girly figure! pps.have you heard from Erica? God Bless you all.

Hey Ginger,

Glad everything's back "in swing" -- I know Carson's doing awesome with Mr. Karl!!

Emily had some dental work done lately too and the versed (spelling??) on both occasions worked great while she was in the chair, but made her act CRAZY the rest of the day too (mean, wild, out of control, etc...). I'm not sure we'll ever use that with her again -- she had such a bizarre reaction. So I can imagine how Cameron might have acted --

We'll try to make it to the Boardwalk Tues night -- sounds like fun!

Miss you boys!

And then to come home and go right back into another kind of jam packed schedule. I can see where Carson gets his determination from! You are one awesome role model!!! I'm glad you got to make so many wonderful memories. I'll be praying for all of you as you readjust to reality.

Wow... I'm tired just reading about your week. I can't believe it's even possible to do all of that in one week!! Most of the things that were your favorites, Carson and Cameron were my kids favorites, too!! They LOVED the 3-D shows as much or more than the rides-- I should have warned you about the front row for Fantasmic... I saw they got splashed quite a bit! Animal Kingdom was the most crowded when we went, too... other than the Bugs Life show and the Pochohontas show we didn't do much there (the "big kids", including Kyle, liked Everest, though...)

I can't wait to see the pictures! Have a GREAT week in therapy, Carson -- I know Mr. Karl is anxious to get the walking thing licked!!

So glad you guys are home safely... I think everyone with kids has some airport horror story, but I'm so sorry you guys had to have one!!

Ginger, thanks for checking up on us...I'm so glad Carson's MRI is still clear and now you'll get more space in between - that's a milestone in itself. Hope the theratog suit is working and that Carson is getting better about letting you put it on. I love the photos and I can't believe how big the boys are getting to be. Robert and some of his friends were in the wagon the other day - couldn't help but remember him and your boys in one. They fit better since they were smaller then! Gave my neighbor a workout since she was the one that ended up pulling the wagon. Tell Carson to keep up the good work - when we see you again, I hope he can chase Robert and Cameron around.

Always love the new pictures and the updates. Sounds like Carson is really making progress, and Cameron is really getting into T-ball. [When my son was little, he liked being in the outfield - it was the best place to pick the clover!] Know both boys will enjoy playing in the water and learning to swim. Thinking about you and praying for your family on this Good Friday. Looking forward to a glorious Easter morning! God bless you all!

Thanks for the update, Ginger! (I wasn't trying to make you feel guilty or anything!!)

I'm so glad to hear how GREAT Carson's doing (probably combo of the suit, IMOT and ALL the great parenting too!!). I also think the swimming will be wonderful for him --

Cameron, I'm so proud of your t-ball skills!! Running the bases in the right order is so over-rated anyway... your way is MUCH more interesting!

Miss you boys -- be GOOD for mom (she's a keeper)...

Stepping between objects?!!! I love it! We can just be thankful for both IMOT and the suit!!! And of course, Carson's incredibly strong spirit that continues to push forward!
However, I am sorry that he's using that strong spirit against Mom.... I don't know why all of us humans act the worst against the people who love us the most. Maybe because it's safe. Carson, I used to meet a little girl in the parking lot of her preschool EVERY morning to put her suit on and dress her in the car so she could go to school. It was not fun for her or her mom. They were both happier when she let mom put her suit on at home-- then we could meet for breakfast before school-- now that was fun! I'm looking forward to hearing about you enjoying the water during swimming lessons.. are you and Cameron goldfish or sharks? You could even pretend to be a big whale and make a huge splash!!!!

I heard that Cameron and Carson were back at Mom's Day Out today! The theratog suit sounds pretty cool. I hope it gets easier for you to put on soon. We just know Carson is going to be running around any day now. Since the weather has gotten so nice and you will actually be in town for a little while, I hope we can get all of our boys together to play soon. We think about all of you often and you're always in our prayers.

Chicken nuggets and fries?!?!!! Awesome!! 7 steps!! Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!
Insurance notice? Crappy! We are in different states, so different strategies probably apply. Appeal, appeal, appeal... wear them down with info about Carson and his medical situation. Get lots of doctor letters when you're at St. Jude recommending therapy! Look around for alternate therapy funding. In WV we have United Way and Family Support, sometimes Title 19 Waiver. I've asked senior therapy students to train for a particular child and then get school credit for doing the therapy.... I'm sure you've already done all of that as has your awesome team. I'll keep brainstorming other ideas, but most importantly I'll keep praying.

Your choice of treats for good work in apparently growing! I hope you are getting a lot of them! Ginger, stop every now and then and take a deep breath, you have a stressful schedule. I am sure your car can probably go on auto pilot to and from Monroe. Cameron, I think is it cool that you and your brother are able to share a big bed. I will see you all in a couple fo week at MDO.

Of course, since it seems like we rarely leave our house these days between illness and weather - it's not really too suprising. I am sooo glad that Carson is doing so well and that the OT and PT can continue. Looking forward to reading more good news from the IMOT therapy. Will be sending lots of prayers up for good results in Memphis - keep up the good work Carson!

Dear Brauns, Thanks for the update. Who doesn't like presents and MORE presents! It was the same around here! Wrapping papers, ribbons and bows everywhere. How fun.

We head back to good old Memphis Sunday. Pray for our sanity. It doesn't get any easier. You know the stress involved. We realize things could be much much worse so we count our blessings and move forward!

Christmas’



Each Christmas I remember
The ones of years ago;
I see my Parents and Grandparents with their Santa glow.


Each Christmas finds me dreaming
Of days that used to be,
When we hid presents here and there,
For all our family.


Each Christmas I remember
The smell in the air,
Of roasting turkey, pies
And cookies everywhere.


Each Christmas finds me longing
For Christmas’ now past,
And I am back in childhood
As long as memories last.





From our family to yours.

Merry Christmas and Happy New year!!

It was great seeing you guy's today. We had a real BIG time while you were gone to the store. Cameron stopped eating lunch, because Carson went outside. Nobody had on shoes. After letting them walk in the street barefooted, we fed the fish, ONE piece of food at the time. Cameron found a BIG stick and beat Nana's flowers. Carson tripped over a rock and went down.(OH and the front door is wide open) So, after Carson stopped crying and Cameron was back in the kitchen eating cold pizza we quietly crept out before MOM got back. Ginger, it doesn't get said enough "You're the Best mom ever!" Love Ya'll

Thinking of you... hope the classroom situation has calmed down. I used to teach in the same room w/ my toddler son and it was a l-o-n-g year at times. I always felt like I was short-changing someone, either my son or the classroom. One thing we did that really helped was that the aide and I talked and we decided that she was in charge of Matt when he needed re-direction. It went better that way for us.

I feel like I'm rambling. I just wanted you to know that I'm always thinking of you!

Just thinking about Carson this morning -- I'm so glad I got to see him for an "extra" visit this week!

I was just thinking this morning about how much stronger he was when I worked with him yesterday... especially those trunk muscles... And how much more stable he's feeling on his feet. I also noticed that his reaction time seemed quicker yesterday. I don't know whether it's the time he's getting to spend walking with the walker, or the fact that he did the listening program right before we worked or it's just the right time, but he is most definitely turning a corner -- I see big progress!!

Hey there, I'm so glad that all is going well. Hope to read the next time that Carson is standing and/or walking. He's just taking his time and will be ready to run when he lets go. Watch out, Cameron! It's been too hot lately for wagon rides but one of these days we're going to be going again. Hope the vacation was a great trip. Miss you.

I'm praying that you and your family are enjoying the blessings of summer. RachelJoy attends a year round school, so we have just started our summer quarter. The best part of it is that she can wear cargo shorts instead of her uniform!

I'm sorry to hear that you've been "under the weather" Carson -- but so excited to hear about your progress toward standing/walking!! Hope to see you guys soon, I really miss you! We've got our dream home ticket and Ginger, believe it or not, I'm in training to finish the 1/2 marathon in Memphis in December -- running as part of Team Jake for Carson & Jake and in memory of Tyler. Erica came to see me last week at BPCC -- she's going back to school (nursing) which is really great-

Keep up the great work Car-Car!!

Thinking of you - I'm sure you have found plenty of ways to fill the days this past week. Cameron better watch out - sounds like Carson is going to be after him one of these days. I'm glad the therapy was a success even though he's still not where you hoped he would be. He'll get there in Carson and God's time. Will be praying for the next MRI to be clean.

I get down sometimes but always have to regroup & count my blessings...it just takes a trip to St. Jude. We will be praying Carson's therapy helps him walk. How awesome will that be when he can keep up...he WILL get there! God Bless you all. Miss you. With love,

Ginger,
I just wanted to let you know that I have been thinking about you and Carson everyday. I am so excited to hear that he is doing so well. I know you must be so proud of him for being such an incredible little boy with such a great attitude. I pray that he will be walking before you leave, but if not I know he will be so much further than what he would have been without the therapy and it won't be much longer after he gets home I'm sure. You never know, he might be taking it all in there and when he gets to his own surroundings he may surprise you and take off! I am so excited for how far he has come. I can't wait to see you at Mom's Day Out when you get back. We will continue to pray for all of you. I told Madison and Kaleigh about Carson and they are so excited. Kaleigh loved the pictures of him. We love you all.

Love & Many Prayers,

I am so happy that he is doing well enough to be working on developmental milestones and is not acutely ill. Your faith and perserverance will pay off.

The photos are great as always. I enjoy checking the website for new ones. The boys are always dressed so cute.
You all are in my prayers. Take care.

We are all cheering you on!! Knowing that you are spirited like your mommy you will probably wait till no one is looking and walk across the room to whack Cameron on the head just for the heck of it:)
Gingerbell hang in there!! I'm sending you loads of hugs right now! I miss you very much and wish I could take some of this away. Just remember how tough Carson is and how very lucky he is to have such an awesome family!!!! Can't wait to see you guys!!

Bossier City, LA - Tuesday, May 30, 2006 12:25 AM CDT
Carson, you're working so hard... I'm so proud of you! Ginger, he is so close to reaching this milestone (walking). I remember with all his other major physical achievements (sitting up, crawling, standing/cruising) that he would be close to it for what seemed like forever, then BAM (think "Emeril"...) , that "switch" would flip and once he "felt" what it was like to do it it would happen. This is just a really tough skill to learn, but just like with sitting, crawling, cruising, he WILL get it and it will be soon... it's just frustrating to wait. We all (especially you) want it so bad for him. Everything you're doing for him this summer with IMOT is going to really help speed up the process. He is very lucky to have such a great mommy!! And, of course, lucky to have such a wonderful group of people in W. Monroe working so hard with him. They are awesome and truly LOVE those kids so much! I miss you Car-Car and can't wait to see all your progress--

I can't imagine what you two are going thru right now, but I am a mom and I know how much you love your boys and how it makes you feel so bad for Carson not to be able to walk....We will definetly be praying at 12:30 and all day long. Hang in there.

Ging, it is easy for those of us with healthy kids to say, "be patient, it will happen." Listen to what the Scriptures say: Jeremiah 29: 11-12..."For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you." God is listening, and continuing to watch and care for you, Carson, and your little family. He is in control, and doing wonderous things through you and Carson. I love you, Aunt Deb

Carson,I am so proud of you. You have big such a big boy this week. I wish I could have seen you riding the horse. That sounds cool. I bet you look pretty cool in your space suit also. I can already tell just today that you are a lot stronger than you were last week. In two weekends I expect to see you running along with Cameron & Carlee. Uncle Johnny, Carlee & I love you very much and are very proud of you.

Ginger-
This is from Tammy Jackson's mom. I finally found you after a year. The boys sound like they are REALLY growing. Soon Carson will have Cam following him. I am glad to hear progress is being made. Hang in there.
All this therapy and c---will be over soon and you will have the fond memories of all that you have met and done.
Slow down and smell the roses.

I'll bet that walker is giving Carson lots of motivation to knock everyone's socks off during his IMOT!! Now that he knows what mobility feels like there'll be no stopping him.

Many, many prayers for all of you in the coming weeks. Happy Mother's Day to a loving, talented, brave, strong, smart and fun-loving mother! You help us all to be better mothers. Enjoy your day!

Karen <karent924@charter.net>
WV - Saturday, May 13, 2006 7:49 PM CDT
Been thinking about you guys this week. I'm so excited that he did so great on the walker -- maybe that will help "kick start" his mobility so he'll get even more out of IMOT. Wish I could be over there to see all his progress for myself, but since I can't you'd better update pretty often! Miss you boys -- hope I get to see you soon!

Wow, with all of your therapy appointments; you should be able to qualify as a chauffer real soon! Seriously, several years ago when we were traveling a lot for our son's medical appointments, we collected enough in expenses and miles to qualify for a bigger tax deduction. I don't know if that applies to you, but with the cost of gas; it may be worth a look. Anticipating the best with your new therapy! Looking forward to hearing all about it!!

That power is like the working of his mighty strength, [20] which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, HAPPY EASTER!

Hi, I'm a first time signer of your guestbook but have been checking in on your cute little boys for a while. The bottle problem reminded me of how I got my daughter, Casey, to finally give her's up at two years old. My aunt has cows and one day she told Casey that the baby cow was really hungry and needed it. So Casey gave it to the calf (my aunt retrieved the bottle while she wasn't looking to prevent the calf from choking on it). And then everytime she asked for her bottle we told her that the baby cow still needed it. It was also a good sharing lesson.

It's not always fun to be the mom, but you know what's best for your boys. I'll be praying about your speaking engagements too! I know you'll do great!

Yes, our little rock star is still shining!! On Monday the entire family was at 'Kinder Music' at their church when they got to see Carson pull himself to a standing position in the middle of the room!!! It didn't last long but I think I heard the cheering up here in Arkansas. More and more he wants to walk holding your hand or behind one of his push toys. We're banking on Feb 3rd, the boys 3rd birthday, that he will take his first steps unassisted! They are also working on teaching him to chew. That is something I do VERY WELL and enjoy too much. I'll get with Carson's Mom about not keeping Carson's public informed. I really don't understand why the mother of twin 3 year olds doesn't have time to keep you informed. She only works 3 days a week. Just ask Chris. lol!!!!!! Really, every minute of every day is a mircle. One of the greatest lessons Carson has taught us is we should enjoy and be thankful for ALL that the Lord as given us.

Hey CarCar. I knew that you could do it. You did so good on all of your tests. When Nana told me how impressed all of your therapists were it made me cry. We thought you were doing good, but these guys are the professionals. You're doing so good that they took lots of pictures and are going to use you as an example on the St Jude PT website. How cool is that? Now you have just got to start eating like a little pig. Oink, oink. Uncle Johnny, Carlee & I love you & Cameron & we'll come play today after work.

Hey big boy Carson. I am so glad that Carlee & Uncle Johnny & have gotten to play with you & Cameron so much here lately. You are doing some big stuff now that you can pull up & cruise around some. Mommy said that you did really good behind your walker yesterday during therapy. Before long Carlee & Cameron are going to be chasing after you. We'll show them. I can't wait to go swimming with you Saturday. And I hope that you've been doing lots of studying for all of your tests that you have coming up next week. Remember we need all A's. You have to have a good report card from St Judes every time you go. I love you and Cameron very much and so does Carlee & Uncle Johnny.

YEA!! Ginger & Carson. The Walk Saturday was GREAT!!! I am so proud of you, Ginger. You exceeded all your goals. Your talk about Carson's journey and St Jude was so touching. You started from the back of the pack and finished first with no one else in sight!! Look out Memphis, she will be running in the Marathon in December. And you also exceeded your goal of collecting $1000 for St. Jude. Daddy and I were so glad to be there supporting you and Carson and St. Jude. Carson you are following a very good example that your Mom is setting. Last year the doctors could not tell us if you would ever be able to hold your head up or sit up and today you are not only sitting up by yourself you are pulling up and standing. You are truly a MIRACLE.
Love you!!

Nana & Grandpa

Hi Carson and Family -

I heard through my sister, Terrie Nugent, that you are taking Carson to Melanie Massey for therapies. You will be so glad that you did. My son, Landon, has gone to Melanie Massey for PT, OT, and Speech since he was a baby. You would never know the need by looking at him now at age 6. Melanie and her staff of therapists are wonderful.

I hope that Carson continues to do well. Your family is in my prayers.

Hi Ginger and Braun crew,
I had the pleasure of talking to Chris today at a meeting where I was discussing my nephew, Matthew, who is at St. Judes with an ependymoma brain tumor. He said he had a St. Jude's child and then I realized I was talking to Carson's dad! I have been keeping up with y'all through the website for a very long time so it was really neat to meet Chris. I am so thrilled that Carson is doing well now. That is a big encouragement to me for Matthew. Its a very small world, isn't it? I will continue to pray for Carson and all of you but am so happy you are enjoying some well deserved reprieve from your long journey.

I think it's wonderful that you're doing so much to educate the public about the miracles happening at St. Jude. I know public speaking is tough, especially when you have to talk about an emotional topic. I'm sure you're doing a great job and making a huge impact. Y'all are always in my prayers.

When we got home from Memphis in Sept., we took Jill out and about at first but with her immune system still being low, she caught every little bug and it lasted longer than her sister's bugs did. So we decided NOT to take her in public from Oct. to Dec. That seemed to do the trick. Her immune system built back up and now she's doing great. It just takes time. I was so sick of being stuck indoors.

Ginger,
Thanks for adding Jake to your journal. The more prayers the better!! I also referred a mom (Matthew's mom) to your site, as they are from Monroe and have a new diagnosis of medulloblastoma and are understandably scared to death. Carson's story should provide a real encouragement to them. I think when Miranda can get her little magic hands of Carson, the eating thing may improve. She is having success with several little "picky eaters". I hope you will share swimming pictures of the boys. I sure look forward to the day Jake can join his brothers in the pool. Melanie

Hope to see him and Cameron again real soon. Love, Lisa, Scott, Hunter and Jacob

So glad to hear Carson's good news. God is so faithful. Carson and Cameron will have more and more fun together and with their friends now. Glad Mom Ginger will have a little time to herself and relief from medical procedures. St. Jude's is wonderful. Pray for improvement in all the patients.

We just wanted to add our Praise to God for His mercies to Carson and the whole family. Martha Clardy had brought Carson's need for prayer to our Bible study group last year and we are so grateful for the priviledge of joining with others in believing prayer on behalf of Carson. Blessings upon you all we pray from our God who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we think or ask.
