I know all of you are anxious to know how Gavin's surgery went. Overall, it went great. It was an emotional thing to go through, but he is healing well and looks just as cute as ever. I will post a detailed update as soon as I get a chance. I had begun working on it yesterday, but never finished because I received the worst news of my life - my mom had died in a plane crash. My mom was one of the most important people in my life. I called her everyday and she often came over to help with Gav. She loved being a grandma and cherished every moment she spent with Gavin. She said that he would always make her day. She even brought us home from the hospital on Tuesday and was supposed to come by today and help me with him. But instead, I am spending time with family and loved ones remembering my mom, as she was the center of our family. I had recently told my mom that her advice was so valuable to me. I told her I was in awe of her and how smart she was. If she had told me the world was flat, I probably would have believed her, just because she was so amazingly intelligent. I still had so much to learn from her and feel completely robbed. I just don't know how to live without my mom...
Kelly, my heart and prayers go out to you in this time of the loss of your Mama. Please, please call if you need help with Gavin in this recovery phase and hard times of the loss of your Mom.

ReplyDeleteHi, Kelly. I have been following your story through Rachel's journey. We, too, have a cleft affected son, Reid, who was born in 2007 with a complete bilateral cleft lip and palate. First of all, I want to say what a little sweetie Gavin is, and I pray that his recovery from his lip repair is going well. I know what a stressful time this can be. And secondly, I want to offer my sincere sympathy over the sudden passing of you mom. I am so very sorry to hear of this news, and want you to know that our family will be praying for you all. Please know that we hope that you are able to find the strength, courage, and peace that you all need at this time. I am truly sorry for your loss. Please take care.....
