On with the end

Well, so Gavin got RSV. No serious enough to put in the hospital. Just treated him at home with multiple breathing treatments a day. So then his Dr. wanted to get a chest x ray. So we went to the hospital and got that done. Well one evening we were eating dinner and his Dr. called. She told us that he did not have pneumonia. This was good. But his heart did appear to be enlarged. I felt as if my heart stopped. I started to cry. she told me not to worry. I was like yeah right, how can a mother not get worried when they are told there is something wrong with their baby's heart?! I cried and cried and called everyone to start praying. I was just sick. So then we scheduled an echo and ekg. And then went to see the cardiologist. He said that his heart was not enlarged. But that they did find a small hole and a coronary fistula. That did not make me feel any better. But he did say these were not serious right now, and may heal themselves. But it is something we have to keep an eye on. So, we went back 6 months later, still a hole and still a fistula. But it wasn't worse, so that is a good thing. So then he changed it to see him once a year for a while. Our next visit will be this Oct. Please keep Gavin in your prayers. So then Gavin had been getting multiple ear infections and his breathing was still bad. So we went to see an ENT specialist. He decided to put tubes in and to take out adenoids. That was an experience. As I took him there and had to hand him off I was crying and praying. What a small procedure, but I think anything your child has to bear, small or not, is hard. So then he came to and ever since then his ear infections have not been as bad, nor has he had as many. The only thing Carlee has been in the hospital for was to get her nose cauterized because she has multiple heavy bloody noses. Which this is hereditary. I also get them and so does my sister. Sometimes they are worse than others.
So, that brings us to right now.. my family now..
I feel so blessed to have my children and a great husband. Aaron is a wonderful man. He works hard for his family and he loves all of us so much. For those of you who don't know him well, he is really layed back, he doesn't yell much, and he likes to be a commedian. Sometimes when I am trying to be serious out pops a joke and it annoys me, but then again, that is just him and how he deals with things. He is an only child, but has a step sister and step brother. I love both sets of his parents. They are wonderful people. And if it weren't for them I don't know what we would do. And as for my dad.. he has lightened up a bit. He has gotten a little nicer most of the time. He loves his grandkids, but only wants to be with him on his time and for just a little bit. He is my dad, I do love him, I just wish things were different. He still wouldn't help anyone out if they needed help with anything. He loves his job and his money. He works very hard. And I still miss my mom. Some days are harder than others. It has been 20 years now since she has gone, I thought it would be easier. And some days it is. Well, to end my life story, I just thank God for my life. I thank him for my family. I take being a mother and wife very seriously. And I thank God for my friends. I love all of my friends as well. I don't know what I would do without them. So there you go. :)
