The nurses brought him a party light to make him feel better last night.
We don't know what's going on still. Currently, he is in MRI.
I hate to do this, but I was not prepared financially for this to happen. I missed work last night and am not sure if I'll even be able to go tonight. So I'm asking for small donations to go towards food and gas.
But more than anything, please PRAY! God has had his back through all of this, and I'm praying he continues to do so.
He doesn't like being in the hospital since his last surgery (understandably). He's slept most of the time we've been here, too. This has been overwhelming if I haven't replied to messages, and I'm trying to give Gannon my attention. I love you all!!

Gannon got a 3-day heart monitor placed today (2 days ago) due to the concern over his constant high heart rate. His medicine has not changed since the last apt. His echo looked better than last time but mostly the same. BUT STABLE!! He's starting to come around more and not sleep so many excessive hours. Hopefully, this test will give us some answers.
Please keep praying

Two days ago - UPDATE
UPDATE
MRI was initially reported to us that he had multiple small lesions on his brain.. then it was changed to tiny previous brain bleeds, possibly caused by bypass during his more recent surgery.
Gannon went into Vtech last night at 1:42 am; his heart rate got to 207, then it corrected itself.
It's being speculated that the event that happened Thursday was a seizure.
EEG and EKG both came back normal, even though he's had these problems.
With that being said, the hospital basically told us they did all the tests they could to keep an eye on him and discharged him.
We were unhappy to hear this, obviously, as we have no answers and are terrified that something will happen again, and the hospital is an hour away.
He's currently with his father, so I may work tonight, and he's keeping a close eye on him. We have a heart rate monitor at the month of our homes we will absolutely be utilizing.
Please continue to pray for him. We have no idea what this means, if it will happen again, or if the "damage" to his brain will be an issue or not. We are left with more questions than answers.
He's been sleeping way more the majority of the day and hasn't wanted to eat much but drinking a lot of liquids.
Please continue to wrap him in your prayers.
We will seek more medical opinions Tuesday since Monday is a holiday.
Thank you to everyone who donated. It made a world of difference, and we are so blessed to have a community for the little boy. We love each of you, and he loves you too!!
I am praying nothing else happens, but we are blessed with the excellent medical staff of Caring Hands to help our baby, and we are so glad they caught this early on Thursday.
