Hello everyone, hope you all had a great weekend!
Hayden’s surgery was rescheduled to June 4th and it went great, even better than expected!!! Docs expected Hayden to have his intestines adhering together and lots of scar tissue…but he didn’t have either!!! Thanks and God bless everyone praying for our little guy!!!
Because Docs believed Hayden’s surgery to go worse than it did, they initially planned on putting in his shunt 2 months after the surgery. Because it went as well as it did, they believe he may get it in a month or so!!! If everything else goes as planned, he will be able to come home a few weeks after his shunt is placed!!
We are waiting on the debris in his brain from the Meningitis to go away!!!! They are still causing seizures, which causes apnea. As soon as Hayden can start breathing on his own, he will begin drinking from a bottle. As soon as he begins to drink the entire bottle with no residual, maintains his blood pressure/temp, and passes a few more hurdles, he will be able to finally finally finally come home!!!
He is up to 5 Lbs and 14 oz, and wearing NEWBORN DIAPERS!!! His original due date is fast approaching: July 2nd. He will be about 3 ½ months old, but 1 day gestational. He has come a long way, and so has his courageous family.
Lisa’s showers are also approaching. Her family one will be on July 12 (I am sending the invites out in 2 weeks). Dustin’s cousin Kim is throwing their friend shower, and I will post the date when it is set (it may be July 19).
Tomorrow is when we find out how severe Hayden’s ROP is and if he will require laser surgery. Please pray that his eyes are getting better!!
Love to all and kisses to Hayden!
