We are glad to hear that he is going to be alright. Quincy would be very upset if Quinton was not at the race anymore. He likes them 4-wheeler rides.. I have see the surgeon at Childrens Mercy for something similiar. They looked at Quincy head because of the size of it, and thought it was too big. I have heard he is wonderful from many of people. We will keep you in our prayers and tell Quinton to get better real soon so he can give Quincy more 4-wheeler rides..
