Field continues to grow and learn and challenge us with his strong willed nature and high (VERY high) energy level. He is nonstop and it's exhausting but a blessing at the same time. He is doing very well in preschool, is very social, on track developmentally, and loves superheroes, cars/trucks, and trains. His heart health has been fantastic and we are very blessed.
I do plan to keep the blog up and running so we can update everyone during Field's upcoming Fontan. We go to Texas Children's Hospital on April 29th where we will consult with our cardiologist and most likely make a game plan for the last and (hopefully!) final surgery which we are expecting to be in the Fall of 2014.
Open heart surgery...again...on our sweet boy who will most likely be 4 years old. I can't even begin to describe the heart ache I feel about this. I can't think about it without tearing up. The last surgery was tough, tough, tough, and I know this surgery will be harder. We COVET prayers for our sweet boy and for his nervous, worried, and anxious parents.
One thing I do know, we have a great God who is SOVEREIGN over all things. He loves us very much and will not leave or forsake us during this time. He will meet us where we are and will bring us the comfort and strength we need to get through each day. And as for Field, he's a tough little fighter and I know God will give him the strength and courage to persevere through yet, another surgery. When Field gets scared, I always tell him that Jesus is in his heart and will protect him. Oh Lord, please hear that prayer and protect our boy.
More to come later!
