The Miracle Doctor
Most know the heartache we went through with Owen's health for over 2 years. He's had so many diagnosis and specialists that have seen him as they poked and prodded, and made their "assumptions". Sweet Owen has had so many procedures and been on so many medications that seniors in their lifetime have never even endured. Through it all though, Jon and I learned not to put our faith in what doctor's say/think/do, they are human and truly are "practicing medicine," meaning well, we know. They are human and there is only One that truly can make a person heal, Jesus!
Out of all the specialists we've seen, two made a huge impact on our lives...we like to refer to them as miracle doctors, Dr. Jeffrey McKenna (Owen's ENT in Phoenix) and Dr. Stephen Hill (Owen's chiropractor in Tempe). Both took countless hours of just "listen time" taking ALL the pieces of Owen's puzzle and piecing them together.
Today we visited Dr. McKenna for Owen's "one year" follow up and he's reported tremendous healing in Owen's ears. The tubes are still in place but on the way out of the canal, he says, probably by the end of the summer. He told Owen that we need to find them so the "Tube Fairy" can come to the home, something that's never been done before in our home!
We thank God for leading us to Dr. McKenna and want to shout out to the world that there is a fabulous ENT in Phoenix for anyone that needs one!
We praise Jesus for healing Owen. He's a very fit and active, three year old boy with a healthy life ahead of him!
(On a side note...Owen thinks Dr. McKenna is cool because he has a flashlight on his head! That's now on his "wish list" and thinks it could be useful for our Sardine and Flashlight Tag nights!)
Has anyone else had the "Tube Fairy" in their home? Help...I need ideas!

We are so excited about the good news for Owen. We know what a trial the last few years have been for you. Praise God. I will have to think of some ideas for the "Tube Fairy" Maybe he brings a chldren's CD of Owens favorite songs since his hearing is better???? (You could always make one)
