I have read alot of comments regarding this surgery and realize there is quite a bit of negativity surrounding it. Cole was at a point where all the medical options had been exhausted and this was the last option before putting him to sleep. As much as I would love for him to live another 15 years, I realize that even another 15 days would be a better than had I not chose to have the stent placed. Cole and I could not be happier with the results so far.
Thank you for the update! What a great outcome, I'm so happy for you and little Cole.
