dearest family,
my grandson gavin has been hospitalized for pneumonia. please can you come? if you have breath to spare and energy you do not need please send it to gavin and his mommy and daddy. he is on a breathing maching. his mommy said, "it doens't look good". they have been there for 28 hours+. a doctor sees him this afternoon to evaluate him.
mommy tried to be strong. then the tears came. my babies. my babies.
love,
blue

My Darling Blue,
All that I have is for your Gavin. You are all so much a part of my life that I feel your pain.
These words fill me with a wonderful feeling of spirit, of inner peace and love.
If I had words to make a day for you
I'd sing you a morning golden and new
I would make this day last for all time
I'd give you a night deep in moonshine
I will wrap Gavin in sunshine and moonbeams. He will be warm and safe in the love that comes from all of you and all of us who know him here in our family. I send to Mum and dad and of course you my love and all of the healing thoughts I can find deep within my heart. My compassionman send his love too.
Take care

HI BLUE.
I will be praying for Gavin, you and your family. I know what you are going through, my grand daughter is 5 and has asthma had pnemonia three times was been taken to the hospital, in fact one time by a police escort, it is very scarey, The one episode I thought we were going to lose our curly headed kid.
I decided I was no longer going to be active on the board, only lurk, but when I saw your post there was no way I could not repond as you have always been there for me.
Love, Luck and Lollipopos to you, Gavin and his parents.
Hugs, Linda

thank you all so much for gifting your time to gavin and his mommy and daddy. it has been 10 hours since i found out. i wait on pins and needles for the phone to ring and hope it will not. i will call daughter this evening. i know they are living at the hospital and i believe cell phones have to be off in hospitals.
my mom always says, "no news is good news". so i wait, hoping the phone will not ring. i spent the day breathing so deeply my chest is sore. the winds came up and whipped the redwood tree. i imagined the tree filling gavins lungs with pure air. i imagined the wind drying the fluids in his little lungs.
i will post when i know something. till then, no news is good news. my eyes fill up with tears each time i think of my adult children holding their breath, waiting. so afraid, so helpless. my babies.
love,
blue

good evening family,
i just got off the phone with daughter. baby gavin has had his lungs aspirated and is still on the breather. he is doing a wee bit better, thanks to all the love and energy from you.
i am sitting here crying. part in relief and part because we are not out of the woods yet. daughter sounds less terrified, that in itself reassures me. my other daughter said she would drop everything and drive me there. the power of love.
sweet dreams baby gavin.
sweet dreams my dear sisters.
love,
blue

Oh blue, I am shedding tears of joy for you and tears of worry. I am still breathing and praying for Gavin. As I type this I am looking at the picture of our own little grandson smiling and laughing and I feel the terror in your heart. Love and energy to you and his mommy and daddy. Let us know how everyone is doing when you can.

good morning beloved sisters,
i had a long talk with mommy this morning. baby gavin is still unable to breath on his own. there is reason for joy, dear sisters. he is doing a wee bit better. the albuterol treatments and the suctioning allow him little windows of breathing on his own. he has lost 2 pounds. he is hydrated and sleeping alot.
daughter and i talked long and deep about the instincts of a woman and how they sharpen when you become a mother. like a razor they speak to you. ignoring them is always a mistake. she allowed the words of others to get under her and cause her to question her instincts. in the end tho, she listened to her innner voice. she was right.
yesterday she told gavins daddy that she felt he owed her an apology. he said she was right. i councelled her to have a long talk later about her instincts and how they are there to protect the whole family and he can find security and faith in her ability if he chooses. she is more powerfully connected to baby gavin. it simply is the way of our natures. i asked her to explain that men are left out of this loop and while it is a sad thing for them it does not mean they are less valuable in the childs development. it simply means he has a different purpose and together they balance for baby.
i am so proud of her right now. she is running on pure adrenalin and instinct.
your thoughts, prayers, breath, meditation and love are working. dance with me this day for gavin. breath deeply and send the powerful healing i know you can all tap into. after all we are women. there is no more powerful force. why do you think we call her mother nature? giggle!!
the sun is shining so bright and lovely today. hope is in the air for gavins mommy and daddy.
i love you all so much,

dearest friends,
shall we celebrate? shall we dance? for gavin! after much work the doctor found that he does not have pneumonia, yipee! he has cronic blocked airway syndrome. doc says in time he will outgrow it.
he has been breathing on his own since midnight last night and gets to go home today. mommy and i talked on the phone. i could hear him cooing and giggling. such a lovely sound. nana is very pleased.
mommy has asked that i thank all of you for your thoughts, prayers, energy and breath. she says it was the power of all of you that showed the doctor the way to gavins healing. she said knowing all these women were caring made her feel safer.
i thank you for gifting time and energy, even when you did not have it to spare.
how i wish i could do a cartwheel right now. i can inside my mind!
love,
blue

What a wonderful sigh of relief! I am breathing deep wonderful thank-you to God for healing little Gavin. That is such great news that he is breathing on his own and that he will outgrow this syndrome. Warm and gentle hugs to mommy and daddy as the tension they have been living with slowly leaves their bodies. Sweet warm and gentle touches for sweet Gavin. And warm and gentle hugs to Nana as she breathes a sigh of relief!

dear family,
thanks! i told my daughter that god was wherever god is, when this barrage of words hit square between the ears. god rose and said, there she goes again. shes got them all coming at me. with a smile god rises to tend, in gods way, the answer to the single (very loud) voice of so many hearts.
blessings come.
love,

Dear Blue, I join with the others in praise for the healing power of
God. The One who spoke the world in space, also healed a baby boy
who need His touch. I have a feeling that Gavin is going to be a
great influence in his family and to everyone in his world. Blue, thanks
for all your careing love on this board.

Yes God listened to all these many voices. We can be a loud and rowdy bunch when we need to be. As bilij said little Gavin will be much needed in our world later on, he has a special purpose he has yet to fulfill. That is aside from being a great joy to nana blue.
Love

PS. How are mommy and daddy doing now?

afternoon,
mommy and daddy slept thru the nite as did gavin. knowing what to do is really the only way to keep fear away. mommy feels confident. i have confidence in her. she asked me again today to thank all of you for creating such a loud noise in the universe.
daddy is home today while mommy gets a bit of work done. they both work in the medical field and her work involves studies to ease pain in those dying. so some is time critical and the people need to see her face. they worry about baby too. then she takes the rest of the week of to stay home.
i will call this weekend when her cell phone is free. till then i am out of touch unless i call after 9 at nite. by then the sleeping pills are altering my thought process. i try not to do any thinking then, giggle, as if i could, tee hee.
love you all,
blue

Yes the cell phone companies have us all living by 'free nights and weekend time'! I hear you blue on the sleeping pills. You know what I have said, no phone answering or talking after the 'pill' has been taken. I am not in the entertainment business for my friends and family....LOL!
It is nice for mommy and daddy to get back to a more normal routine. Mommy being able to put her mind to work on something else for a while should help to release some of the tension I am sure she still holds.
So happy they are all home and doing much better.
Love
Glojer
