We just got back from Gavin’s MRI. He did fantastic and I’m so proud of him. For MRI took about an hour and he broke down sobbing towards the very end and we had to pull him out for a break before doing one final scan. The staff said he did really, really well. Now …

We’re sitting here waiting and I noticed something was wrong with Lizze. Lizze is so stressed out that she’s broken out in hives. He entire face and neck are covered. We are getting her some benadryl and hoping for the best. This is all too much for her.

We have actually been for awhile now and are still waiting to go back. It appears that they are pretty busy at the moment. We have to wait for a room with a monitor. Gavin‘s slowly become more stable as time goes on. Hopefully we’ll get back there and we can figure out what’s going …
