Our Little Pumpkin!




Faith here, Thank you all for your prayers today, it was a stressful day but we all got through it! Gavin opened his eyes and stared at us this evening, he looked like he was a lot happier! Gavin is getting blood tonight because his blood count was low, please pray that he continues to heal and we dont have anymore set backs! The nurse said that they will take him off the ventilator early tomorrow morning as long as everything goes well this evening, however they will leave the chest tube in to continue to drain his left lung if they need to. I was able to "lift" Gavin up today while they changed his bedding, so here are some pictures! Thanks again for your continued prayers!

I don't normally do this - but here goes. I don't know you I stumbled on your blog looking for info on HLHS. My daughter Bronwyn has the same condition. She was born about 2 months ahead of your son. Oddly my older child is named Gavin too. Well Bronwyn had the norwood surgery and is home with us now - we have been home for about a month and she is doing great. We have been thrilled with her recovery and with all that God has done in our lives through this struggle.

May he continue to guide and bless you all as you head down a road that is crazy similar to the one we are on. I will add your son to our prayer list.
