She’s been here all day, and we’re hoping to go home tonight still. Just trying to chase down what could be causing our girl pain. 😔

Yesterday our sweet Finn laid in that noisy MRI tunnel for one hour, letting the magnets map out every inch of his brave, broken, beautiful heart. For an HOUR. Our silly, anxious-brave eight year old with ADHD and PTSD closed his eyes, took a deep breath and did it without a single wiggle. I was so proud!

His imaging confirmed what his last echoes have shown… his little heart is working very hard and interventions will probably be needed sooner rather than later.

Next steps have already been scheduled, and we appreciate you keeping Finn (and the rest of us) in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for standing with us- hope beats loudest when we share it. 💙💙

We are so grateful for these wonderful friends who show up and love our kids like family. This week they celebrated our girl’s amazing artwork with us, and we couldn’t be more thankful for the love and support they give so generously. ♥️♥️
