Do you ever hear words that stop your heart and make you hit your knees in prayers of thankfulness? Hearing Garrett say his age is that phrase for me. How can time fly like this? How were so many days so incredibly long, but in hindsight now so so short? Above all, how is it we are so richly blessed or perhaps even just lucky that our kiddo with Mitochondrial Disease is not just surviving, but THRIVING.
So much has happened since my last post! We have sold a business, started another or two, I began working part time, then full time, and goodness our oldest kiddo heads to college for her freshman year tomorrow! Now seems to be a season of reflection, blessing-counting, exciting new perspectives, and frankly sometimes it is, “Exactly how in world did we survive this, that or the other?”
I do plan to spend more time here in the next year, but meanwhile I just want to drop in a few photos to share Garrett’s sweet smile and handsomeness!!! I’ll return to some of our experiences navigating Mito through school, church, camps, and all of the management of increased GI and enteral feeding support through these past years. Bottom like is that our little boy (teenager🤭) is complicated but worth every single ounce of our energy and persistence!
