Happy 2 Month Birthday!!!



Good evening everyone, hope you all are doing wonderful!

First off, we are happy to wish Hayden a TWO MONTH BIRTHDAY!!! He is getting to be such a big boy!! We are also happy to announce that Hayden is up to 4 lbs 8 oz!!! He is growing so much every day!

Now is a time when we really need everyone’s prayers!! Doctors have found bacteria, probably Meningitis again, in his spinal fluid (that was drained from his brain). Every head tap is tested for bacteria, and his latest test came back positive. We are hoping and praying that is was just a minor skin infection of some sort, and will hopefully find out tomorrow. As many of you know, he has had a rough and long battle with Meningitis thus far. He has also been having increased seizure activity.

Also, Hayden’s heart murmur (hole) has gotten bigger. A cardiologist is checking into it tomorrow. If it is determined that the hole will continue to grow, docs will do emergency heart surgery. Hayden is also struggling with apnea spells…docs think most of his complications are due to the effects of his Meningitis.

As many of you know, Hayden has been through so much in his little time on earth, and deserves to be happy & healthy, living at home…we all know he has earned it! Instead of being held and hugged by his parents, he is stuck in a lonesome incubator at a NICU. He really really needs your prayers and support right now!! Please take a few minutes out of your day to prayer for our little fighter!!!

Thanks so much! I will try to post info up tomorrow if we find anything out!!

Love,

Aunt Krystal
