Good morning everyone, how is your Monday. I would like to first just give thanks to God in part that Mac has had a wonderful weekend. Despite our need to stay overnight due to multiple procedures, he has done so well. 
I will say it’s been a bit of an adjustment, almost as if we brought Emerson home for the first time. The kids are elated to have baby brother home. Often fighting for opportunities to hold and kiss him. They are getting adjusted to changing clothes upon returning from school, and either washing their hands or using sanitizer. Currently Mac’s numbers are absolutely wonderful, they will be rechecked this week. 
As of now, skin care has needed to be done for both the g-tube and the area where the port was removed.
I am a bit disappointed that it has to be removed, but I am at peace knowing that no growth (bacteria) has been found thus far from the sample they took. I mean yes his immune system has gotten a boost, but to have an infection would be the worse. I am happy to say I have been using the g-tube to give him the dosages if antibiotics 3x/day. 
I am doing my best to try some foods with him, and give him other medications by mouth. We desire to utilize his mouth as much as possible, as not to create any aversions. The funny thing is this guy is passing gas, and it’s so loud it sounds like it is coming from me!
Upcoming thus week
✅imaging tomorrow 12/10/19
✅follow up in oncology clinic 12/11/19
✅placement of new semi-permanent line 12/13/19

There are 16 more days until Christmas. At this time, we have no idea when next cycle of chemo will be warranted. So as I continue to love on Manny and Mia, and get some much needed rest, I’m so glad that many of you continue to walk with us. 



Father God, we praise you as we have been able to be home for some time without any complications. Continue to do a work of healing in Emerson’s body. May we not forget the true reason for this holiday season in celebrating your birth, Jesus. In your name Amen

    Ephesians 1: (19)And how surpassingly great is His power working in us who trust Him. It works with the same mighty strength He used.

    I'll Trust You, Lord

    I know that faith is easy when everything is going well. But can you still believe in Him when your life's in turmoil. And when all things around you seem to quickly fade away. There's just one thing I really want to know.

    Will you let go? (I'll trust you, Lord)
    Will you stand on My word? (I'll trust you, Lord).
    Against all odds will you believe what I have said? (I'll trust you, Lord)

    What seems impossible (I'll trust you, Lord)
    Will you believe? (I'll trust you, Lord)
    Every promise that You made I will receive? (Yes, I will trust You, Lord)

    I will trust, I will trust, I will trust., oh, oh, oh
    Yes, I will trust You Lord.

Caution, this post is real, as they all are. However it may make some of you uncomfortable.  Have you every watched Moana? There is a scene where moana is after Maui. Well in the middle of the night as she is voyaging there is a storm, she ask the water to help. She wakes up ship wrecked on an island and is upset, because she believes she is off course. She realizes she landed on the island where Maui has been. Well let me give you a better picture. The disciples sitting in a boat, and there is a bad storm. All the while Jesus is asleep. WHAT! The disciples in fear of drowning awoke Jesus.  “And they went and woke him, saying, "Save us, Lord; we are perishing." And he said to them, "Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?" Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. And the men marveled, saying, "What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?"” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭8:25-27‬  Since Emerson was diagnosed I have held on ...

New Beginnings...

So as many of you may know our family is not on any sort of social media. However since the birth of our 3rd child, Emerson Daniel, this past summer, I wanted an opportunity to keep those whom are close to use up to date with our lives. As you may come to notice that I will be writing a lot about our youngest as we have been given some medical mysteries with this guy. God has and always been faithful to us during this time. Now I am hoping you will be patient with me, as this whole blogging is fairly new to me. As you will see there are pages, with specified topics. However new updates should show up on the main page when you check in. Please do not hesitate to leave messages, and above all prayers. In Christ The Calderons

Good morning.  I want to only place thoughts in my head and my heart that are going to leave lasting memories. This is sometimes hard to do. I’ve realized this as I walk with Christ. Many assume that oh those Jesus loving folk got it all together, they just call on His name and blessings rain down. Well yeah that’s true...but even the most righteous have to go through trials and tribulations. I mean have you heard of Job, he got his world turned upside down. Watch to find out about Job So is everything Emerson going through fair? As his mother I would say absolutely not. Do I believe there is a greater purpose in all of Mac’s suffering and his road to recovery and being rid of this leukemia? YES! So despite my flesh wanting to yell from mountain top of how unfair this all is, my spirit desires that I continue to trust in Jesus and his plan for my son. Now that doesn’t mean I disregard treatment or forsake the wisdom and knowledge of the     medical staff. I kn...
