miracles really happen


this baby has taught me a very valuable lesson. On Saturday night (9-19) all my family went down to the hospital where he has spent the first week of his life to say our good byes. He was not doing well and were under the impression that Jeff and Keely were going to have to make the hardest decision of their lives on Sunday. He was not doing well. Every time they took out the tubes to change or clean them he would crash. As we were all sitting there in the waiting room of the hospital we were talking of the inevitable events to come, my Dad piped in and said,"I think you guys are giving up on him too fast, he's gonna pull through." not much was said to that through all of our tears and sadness. On Sunday afternoon they were to meet with the Doctor one last time to see what else could be done. They decided to take him off the EC-MO slowly.....he did great. so they clamped it off for about 30 min...he did great. The doctor was doing a little happy dance and took him in to remove the EC-MO completely and he is now in critical condition, but STABLE! They want to do the surgery soon to push the organs back where they belong. miracles never cease.
