Sawyer made it to the Tides last baseball game today. However, we could only stay about 40 minutes. Soon after we arrived, his blood pressure (BP) elevated to a dangerously high level.
We gave him his emergency BP med and started out to the emergency room. The BP med kicked in quickly, reducing his BP and we were able to connect with our doctor. So we opted out of the trip to the hospital, but his BP was still too high to risk staying at the game. Plus, Sawyer was wiped out after that episode.
The good news is the Tides hit 4 home runs in the one inning we were able to watch. Very cool!
It was a short trip, but Sawyer came alive with anticipation before the game and he was grateful for the time he had there.
At this point, Sawyer is not stable enough for much activity. This will most likely delay his start of preschool and soccer this week. However, we will keep working hard towards his recovery and take it one day at a time. We are trusting God for wisdom and discernment as we go.
Thanks for cheering for my boy today.

We're praying for God to give you supernatural wisdom, insights and patience beyond your human understanding, and His amazing love even when you are exhausted. God has your little man in His care, we know that!
