Gavin Update

Most of you know by now, Gavin passed out at school (again) yesterday. We are SO thankful for the quick reaction of Coach R, Coach B, the school nurses and our favorite counselor. Once again they handled the situation like pros. We feel so blessed and safe with Gavin being at LCS. The entire situation was handled calmly. I can't say enough about our school and staff!

For those that don't know, Gavin was transported via ambulance to OU Childrens in OKC so we could be with our cardiologist. Once here we started testing to rule out heart issues.

This morning we got some discouraging news, still trying to process it all. The echo that Gavin had last night has shown changes from his echo in May. There is more blood pulling back into that ventricle that was coiled off in May. With that being said, Gavin will need another heart cath to get the specifics. So we will stay again tonight and do a heart cath first thing in the morning. Once we know specifics from that we will make a plan on any intervention Gavin needs. Please keep praying for Gavin, we know God hears our prayers and shows us miracles in these discouraging times. 

I want to share something I read out of my book at 4 this morning. It was so timely for me....

"We are learning to live as children who are deeply loved. We are learning to live with confidence that every temporary suffering will lead to eternal good, if we just stay near to our Father. Even when it hurts. ESPECIALLY when it hurts."
