Saturday - Day Eight

Today he had his eyes open for most of the day. The doctor said this is a very good sign but still not to expect too much. His liver gets better and better everyday but his kidneys are still having problems. Which is why he continues with dialysis. We put some tennis shoes on him today, in order to limit his chance of "drop foot". The hospital tries to not perform any tests on the weekends so a MRI is scheduled for next week.

What an amazing and strong family this sweet boy has. We love all of you and are so concerned. We are praying constantly with much faith for Karson and the family. Love, Aunt Lana and Uncle Dave

Tell Karson he needs to hurry and get better the King Reunion is just around the corner and Karson and I are always paired up for horseshoes, and he doesn't care that I am terrible.
