STRESS STRESS AND MORE STRESS!

Boy have we had a stressful week! I dont think I have been this stressed out since Gavin was born and we had all of his medical complications.
Our week started off bad last Tuesday with a phone call from our great-grandmother who keeps Gavin. He decided to get on the treadmill and turn it on and got his finger caught in the belt... WHILE IT WAS STILL RUNNING! Needless to say, he had a thrid degree burn to his finger!! At the beginning of the week, it looked so bad that the hand specialist thought he might have to have a skin graft!! We went back yesterday ( aweek from injury date) and to my excitement... God has once shown his grace and miracles in Gavin b/c she said it looked great and would heal on it's own! WHAT A PRAISE REPORT. We have come along way with this finger in just one week! I have been stressed to the max! So... all was better yesterday... then I get home last night and notice a rash all over Gavin... HE WAS ALLERGIC TO THE ANTIBIOTIC HE WAS PUT ON!! Geez!! Can we just get a break please!!!!! So... that has been the not so fun week we have had. Not to mention the cold that Gavin and I have both had all week, so we have both been up at night without good sleep!
So... with all of that being said... maybe things will start to calm down at our house!! I just wanted to let you all know about Gavins finger so you could pray for healing to continue and I wanted everyone to know that God has done yet another miracle in this child. It was so bad last week, that he could have possibly had surgery that wouldn't have even worked... so he went from that to this week.. it is going to be fine and heal on its' own! God is good... all the time!!

I'm so sorry to hear that, but glad his finger is better. I KNOW that had to hurt big time! I'll be praying for Gavin and his healing. Jack too had an allergic reaction to the medicine he was on last week. Doesn't it hurt so bad to see your baby hurt? :(

What is it with treadmills and children? Krisha did the same thing when she was little, she still has scars on her knees! We will pray for Gavin's speedy recovery and thank God for the many blessings he has bestowed on this special little guy! Love you!
