Hi everybody, my name is Lexton Dean Fortner and I am the bravest kid in the world :)
I am 7 years old and I go to High Country elementary. I haven't been able to go to school lately because I have been very sick :( I have been in the hospital for almost a full week now. I am a little scared but I know that I am strong and that I will be OK. The doctors tell me my kidneys are not doing so well. They have had to poke me and put tubes in me. I even have one that comes out of my back. I really wish I didn't have to have them but I know they are going to help me get better. I have been in a lot of pain but now they gave me button to push that will give me pain medicine whenever I need it. I am having to push my button a lot and the medicine makes me tired. I am missing all of my friends from school and my brother and sister. I even miss fighting with my sister Brailee!
My teachers came to see me today and I was glad to see them. They brought me lots of surprises.... balloons, stuffed animals and books. It really made my day a little better and it was the first time I smiled all day. Tonight the nurse has to come back and poke me again and take my blood. I heard them say that if my blood does not look better I have to do something called dialysis. I don't really know what that is but I am scared. Well I am getting pretty sleepy now from my pain medicine but I will talk to you all soon.
Love, Lexton!

Hey Lexton, I really wish you would come home. All the dogs do, too. Brittany especially lays her head down on my knee and whispers to me to bring you home. Hey, if you don't come home, I'm going to be sad because I won't have anyone up with me early on Saturday mornings. I love you, buddy. Oh, yeah, Savannah was looking for you today.
ReplyDeleteLove ya, Theresa
Your fish want you to come home and feed them.... Hurry home so we can go back to the park!

Lexton, you're so strong and brave that you amaze me. I'll be praying for you everyday.
ReplyDeleteHi Lexton! I'm a good friend of your Daddy's. I bet you didn't know it, but you and I have the same birthday!!! I really like the picture of you in your baseball uniform. Baseball was my favorite sport. Your daddy and I used to play baseball all the time when we were kids. You'll have to teach him how to throw a good fastball when you get back home! I hope you get feeling better soon and maybe someday when I come to visit your daddy we can all go play some baseball.
ReplyDeleteLexton, I work with your Dad. I heard about what you are going though and how brave you are and how much of a trooper you have been. You have been in my thoughts and prayers and I wish you a very speedy recovery!!
ReplyDeleteHi Lexton!! I work with your dad... and you know what? He smiles everytime he talks about you!! I see why now! You are a such a brave, strong guy! I am praying that you hurry and get better!! And by the way... you're such a cutie patootie!!!
ReplyDeleteAww, Lexton! We are praying for you and also that the drs can figure out the best treatment for you!

Hi Lexton, my name is Twana and I also work with your dad. Here in the office I call him "Forty". He is the sweetest guy. I know that he and God are looking out for you so I'm not really worried about that but, I do wish you a speedy recovery and hope the nurses have much gentler hands. (So you don't hurt)! smile. Hope you have a great day and get to go visit the train.
