prayer request

just asking those who follow my blog to please pray for my son. his blood pressure is up a little so the cardiologist wants to monitor this for the next few weeks and see if this high is where gage 'normally hangs out' at or if he was just high from playing or something that day. i updated his caring bridge site tonight with a little more information at www.caringbridge.org/visit/mittelstaedt

thanks!

also, i talked to another mom today who is expecting a little girl in august who is diagnosed with having the same heart defect as gage, truncus arteriosis. please keep them in prayer as it's very stressful and nerve wrecking and beyond emotional to be preparing for the greatest gift to be born, but with so much unknown and to put your little one under the knife for open heart surgery in hopes to save their life. i was blessed to be able to talk to this mom and try to answer her questions b/c i would have loved this, but at the same time, it's hard going down memory lane. so please lift them up during this time and the baby, who is doing well right now, but her stomach is measuring a few weeks smaller than the rest of her body.

again, thanks!
