BIG NEWS!

Today was a big day for David...and really, our whole family! David gave his 2 week's notice at his job to join forces with another team, but this time, as a Partner. :-) This decision hasn't been easy and for myself, it's a huge step out into faith that God will meet us here, right now and everyday in the present to meet our needs. So basically, He'll continue providing just as He's always done. lol! AMEN! David's last day is Jan., 17th. Only 2 weeks left of a stable paycheck...at least for a while!

On a much different note, Nathan was seen by his Pediatrician today to address a chest pain that Nathan has been complaining about. This is the 3rd time in the last few months he's complained about this and the pain lasts anywhere from a few days - several weeks. First time I brought him in, he did have wheezing so we used the nebulizer to treat the wheezing. Nathan stopped complaining about the pain. Second time was just before Thanksgiving, so Dr & I consulted via e-mail and agreed to sit back and see what happens this time and do the nebulizer if necessary. Soooo...this time, I don't hesitate and I bring Nathan in. No wheezing and his heart sounds fine. BUT, because we're talking about Nathan who has a pretty big medical wrap sheet, the Dr wants to rule out anything with his heart. Tomorrow (1/4), I will bring Nathan in for a chest x-ray to look at his heart and ribcage area. We should get those results 24 hrs from the time I bring him in. Secondly, after the results of x-rays, either way Dr wants Nathan to see a Cardiologist who will more than likely do an EKG and go from there.

The Pediatrician is "not overwhelmed with concern" about this chest pain, but certainly wants us to do a thorough check at this point since this is the 3rd "episode" of complaints and no wheezing is present. Dr said, could just be tight chest muscles??? Hmmmm... I'm so glad I've learned not to panic until there is something to actually panic about. It's been a difficult road to learn this lesson, but better now, than later. I just have to stay focused, proactive and remain in prayer. I can't control anything else.
