We've got the first part of the bloods back and it's more good news. The enzyme which indicates a diseased heart is 'normal'. This was high when he was in hospital. Potentially this means that he may have had a virus or a 'cause' of the heart failure which has now gone.
So, what this means is that 'recovery' is back on the table as an option. It's still very early days and a long way to go, but there is a chance!
There are more bloods to come back including kidney function.
It is quite unbelievable and I suspect we aren't going to quite dare believe what it could mean, for some time.
On another note that doesn't leave me quite so lost for words... Bridgit and Leah had a fantastic fundraiser last night for Cure Kids and their Auckland to Queenstown challenge. They raised $7500 and plenty of our crowd went home with a few extras, including us - thanks to Mum we have a year's supply of breakfast to share!
In the middle of all of the fun, Bevan slipped in the 'oh yeah, the Dr rang with the blood results'. Apparently kids bath times can be quite the diversion!
