Feeling refreshed

First I have to thank you all for the overwelming response of kind words from my last post. I have so many great new friends, and I love that we can support each other and lift each other up as you have all done for me.
I talked to my ped. today. She read the official report and it doesn't say anything specific. I told her how I felt about the seizures ruining his brain. She said over time it does effect it, but she's more worried about his lungs than seizures taking his life at this time. The only scary thing right now is if he went back into status. We'd then have to make decisions on how far we would take things. I've considered taking him to a neuro in California. I've heard two people mention him so I think he's worth checking out. My ped. will support whatever I want to do. She also thinks the SVC problem right now is what really needs our attention. Its obvious his face is still extremely puffy, and he is super cranky. We are just waiting for our hemo doc to call us about the doctors out of state for a plan.

I'm just super exhausted. I haven't been sleeping because Jax is up all night. And during the day I'm running constantly so I can't stop to take a breath. I finally was able to squeeze in a badly needed haircut tonight. After Carter's game I ran to the store by myself and got my hair cut. I feel like a new women, if only I could catch up on my sleep. Ya right.

If only I knew when I had this picture taken how fitting it is for him, my little angel with 9 lives.

  3. THAT is the cutest,most precious picture EVER!!I am sorry I missed the last post my friend.My night at the hospital and never have a computer.I wish I could reach across the distance and give you a hug and tell you once again what a fighter Jax is but you already know that.He is strong and courageous and he is going to find his way through this.And yes Donald Shields is Zoey's doctor and I HIGHLY recommend you finding a way to get to him.I know you have to have a physician's referral only so beg,borrow and bribe a neuro there to get it done.Wish I had some pull there but no way around the referral.Praying for you my friend and for sweet Jax.

  8. Jaxson is definitely an angel!

    I'm glad you are feeling somewhat refreshed, but I hope that you are able to get some much needed sleep soon!

    I'll be praying that all of this uncertainty with Jax and his pending surgeries will get cleared up soon! Waiting and not knowing can be so difficult!

    I hope he and your other boys are over their flu symptoms! You have been one busy Momma!

    Did you happen to talk to your Ped about breathing treatments for Jax?

    I'm praying!!! HUGS!!!!!

  10. What a precious picture. Continuing to pray. And-do you mind if I ask what it means when you say he goes back into status?

  11. Lacey, thank you for explaining.

    Lillian's blog is where I try to keep things specific to her. I try to keep her medical status and updates there.
    Surviving it all is more of my personal journey through the new life God has given us.

    I found you through the VW's blog.

    Thank you for stopping by and answering my question.

  12. Lacey, I wish I could come babysit so you could take a nap (or two or three). It sounds like you have a wonderful pedi. That is a blessing

  13. Maybe you could send Jaxon's records to the specialist in Cali first, before you take him out there. Perhaps he could consult with the neuro's here.

    Have you seen the pulmonologist at PCMC? Daftry? He's amazing. Truly.

  14. Where in CA is this doctor? Perhaps we can visit if you come. :)

    I hope that you get some sleep.

Jaxson is so angelic and beautiful and precious in the photo you posted! A photo to cherish forever! You are one special woman with one special little boy! Words escape me but what I do know is that God has a great plan for little Jax! Hope you get some rest my freind! Big hugs for you all! Lots of Love, Megan and Keaton
