"A LOT" to say about that Weekend;)

We love to welcome Travis home A LOT!

(No matter how late at night it is!)

 Troy helps Travis and Lynna A LOT...

He helps with all of Trav's electronic stuff

(like his phone, his Dynavox, iPad, etc.).

He also helps Lynna get Travis inside,

go to the bathroom, and move him around.

Did I even mention that Troy mows

Lynna's yard and waters it, too?!?

 We laugh A LOT :)

 There is always A LOT going on...

 We take A LOT of pictures!

(We know all too well how priceless they are.)

 We pray together A LOT...

 I love these two guys A LOT!

Garrett always says the most perfect prayer over/for Travis.

 I love Travis and Troy's relationship A LOT.

They are so close :)

 We smile A LOT!

 We support Travis A LOT...

(No matter how early in the morning!)

 We act like Superman A LOT!

 We come together as a family

A LOT.............

 And we see if we can fit A LOT 
of family in the elevator..............

 Monday, August 5th was actually a

day we dreaded A LOT.

This was the day of the hearing against

Lynna's insurance company who has

stopped payment on Trav's stay at CNS.

The insurance company believes CNS costs

too much (it IS expensive...no doubt about that...

$2800 a DAY, but this is typical for

a brain injury facility which in the US

ranges from $900 a day to $6000 a day).

The insurance company would rather

Travis be moved to a nursing home.

While we would LOVE to have him in Waco,

his rehabilitation would be OVER.

 This hearing was our final plea

to the insurance company to allow Travis

to stay at CNS and receive the therapy

and care he MUST have.

(This includes ALL types of brain injury therapy,

plus 24 hour nursing care and someone with

him AT ALL TIMES ~ which he must have).

We worry A LOT about what will happen

and where Travis will go next.

When we all walked in, they tried to tell us

that we would have to limit the number of

people in the room for the hearing. 

That was A LOT funny!

Needless to say, we all went in

 to support our Superman!!!

(My dad didn't wear his shirt because

he had a tape recorder in his front pocket!

HA HA!  My funny dad!)

 Did I mention that we have fun A LOT?

(We couldn't make it if we didn't!)

Most of all, we just love A LOT.

 Aunt Michelle and I fight over our 

first born nephew A LOT! 

 Wendell does A LOT for
 Lynna, Travis and Hunter.

He has been absolutely incredible to us all.

 Scott brought up some excellent points during

the hearing.  He cares for his son A LOT.

 Logan has grown A LOT (physically

and emotionally) since this all began. 

 Lynna did an AMAZING job at the hearing.

She read about three pages (that I wrote!  ha!)
stating her case and pleading with
the insurance to let her son stay at CNS.
  Lynna is strong A LOT...

especially for these two handsome boys.

 We try to be bold A LOT!!!

On Friday of that week, Lynna received a

letter that the insurance was once again denying

coverage for Travis at CNS.  She came directly

over and we cried over the letter...

then a peace came over her and all of us.

God hasn't let us down yet.

CNS has not received payment from

the insurance company since MARCH.

CNS believes so strongly in TRAVIS

and in the fact that the insurance company is

doing us wrong that they have allowed

him to stay.  They are continuing to battle

the insurance company.  We take each

day that Travis is still at CNS as

 a gift from God. 

We thank Jesus A LOT.
