"This makes for harmony among the members, so that all the members care for each other equally. If one part suffers, all the parts suffer with it, and if one part is honored, all the parts are glad. Now all of you together are Christ's body, and each one of you is a separate and necessary part of it" 1 Corinthians 12:25-27
First of all I have to say how taken back I am by the emails I receive from each of you that you are praying and thinking of Dax. It is amazing to know how loved that precious little thing is. It is even more amazing to know just how many of you are lifting him up in prayer to our Savior. We have truly seen 1 Corinthians 12:25-27 lived out by each of you.
THANK YOU!
Okay, here it goes.
Two months ago Dax was tested for Cystic Fibrosis and last Friday we received the results. Every time the phone rings and it is the Doctor I think both of our hearts skip a beat. He has been a PHENOMNAL DOCTOR and has really taken Dax under his wing, which we are so thankful for. So to hear the actual doctor himself and not the nurse is always bittersweet.
The last several times he has called us it is because they have found something. The cyst on his brain, the nasty bacteria that was growing in his face and now…
Well now we have found out that Dax’s test results show that he is a carrier of C.F. plus he has an uncommon mutation that is found in only 2% of people.
So what does all of this mean? Well it means some more tests for our little Dax Master, plus some symptoms that might, okay will appear later on in life for him.
And although I would like to share some of those things with you, I am going to just leave it at that for right now. We have decided as a family that it would be better for Dax and us if we kept them private. At least until we hear more from the Doctor and are sure of what will be ahead of us as far as his health.
But please keep praying. Your prayers are what get us through this and what is getting our little man through every poke, test, procedure, etc.
It is wild because just the other day I was talking to my dad and for some crazy reason it really just hit me that our baby is only 2.
Oh, how thankful I am to serve such a Mighty, Loving God and to be surrounded by all of you. We know God will heal Dax and we are standing firm in that promise.
Jesus thank You for surrounding us with brothers and sisters that we know and don’t know that are praying for Dax. Bless each one of them, You know them by name. Amen
