Easton's birthday

Well, it's been a while since I last posted. Things are going just fine in the Krenzke household. We had Easton's birthday party today, and he seemed to really enjoy himself. He turns 4 tomorrow.

Taylor is now in Teeball. Her first game is Saturday, May 2nd. I guess she really makes some great comments out on the field and it's only been practices. I can only imagine what will be said or done during games.

Baseball is in full swing. The Creek are 8-3 for the season and they open up with conference play on Monday. You can get updated by going to the following link: http://www.hometeamsonline.com/teams/?u=CREEKBASEBALL&s=baseball&t=c

Max Yatch is recovering very well. He was able to make it out to the ball game last weekend to watch. Jason and Max's teammates were very, very happy to see him.

Bullock Creek is playing at the Dow Diamond on Sunday, May 3 at 2:00 against Troy-Anthens. Tickets will be $5 a piece and kids 5 and under get in free. The proceeds from the ticket sales will go to the Yatch family. Please make every effort to come out to the game and support the Creek and the Yatch family.

Blessings to everyone, Joslyn

Season opener

Well the season officially starts today with the Creek playing Midland High. Jason is so excited about this season--he seems to be feeling much better this year and has a much clearer mind. Jason had another treatment yesterday--not sure what number that is (lost track)--so he woke up to his typically nausea. It's amazing how we can tell you exactly what's going to happen the days after treatment--it's like clockwork.

Max is doing extremely well--here was an update from earlier this week:
"WOW! We just saw Max yesterday (Sat.) and you wouldn't believe how well he is doing. :) He is getting therapy nearly 8 hours/day-every day, but we did see him on a couple of his breaks. Here's what's going on:
He had his trach plugged off for 24 hours so they are thinking that they will remove it very soon. He's talking-softly because of the trach, but he's definitely talking in a few word sentences! He talked to Paul on the phone. Not only can he get himself in and out of his wheelchair, but yesterday, he walked 400 feet! By himself! They are starting to feed him more and more through his mouth, with soft foods like applesauce and puddings. They need to make sure that after he swallows the food, it goes to his stomach and not his lungs (?) so when they are sure everything is working ok there, they will continue to add more and more. He is writing...he is adding/subtracting...he plays catch with George...he throws a ball up and has it come 2 inches from the ceiling, every time. As far as I can tell, he's using both arms/hands equally and normally. George said they have a driver's training area on site so Max will drive before he comes home. His expressions are the same...he still has that sheepish little grin."

The baseball team is going to be playing at Dow Diamond on Sunday, May 3rd at 2:00. This is the same day as the Miles for Max fundraiser. We are hoping to raise more money at the game for Max's family as well. It should be a great time. I will post more details as they become available.

Blessings for your day, Joslyn
