Thank GOD that Mikey did so well today.

that he won't need further surgery. He is such a beautiful baby!!!

Wow that is amazing. What a turn around from yesterday. I wish I could have been there to see the smiles on your faces as you watched him kicking and looking around at everyone. What a sight that must have been. Everyones prayers are doing wonders. I am sorry he has to have surgery again next Friday but hopefully this will take care of it and a cyst doesnt fill that void again. I am praying that the infection disappears once and for all and so does the swelling. You can see how alert he is but that darn infection is keeping him down. I am probably the only one not smart enough to figure out how to light one of those candles so I will just keep praying for Mikey, for strength for the family, and wisdom for the doctors.

Hey there everyone,
I just got a email from Becca. I will post it because I am on my way to work. Hope you all enjoy the news.
when we saw him today, he was wide awake, starring out the window! then the nurse came in and said he took 40cc's from her this morning at 8am. and at 930, he started acting hungry again. so we may be feeding him soon. he doesnt have the NG tube in (feeding tube) because he is getting plenty of fluids from his IV. so they are feeding him ADLIB (whenever he is hungry), and he is doing well that way. he is def. a different boy, in all the right ways. he is more energetic, watches what you do, plays with your hands, kicking the crap out of his feet! and best of all, he hasnt stopped smiling at daddy all morning. my little mikey is finally on the right road to recovery. i will continue to update.

Yay Mikey - Way to go

I'll continue to pray for Mikey and your family. Thank God things are looking up now! Maybe the corner has been turned and all will be full speed ahead for little Mikey from now on.

I am so thrilled to hear he is still doing great. Val, if he continues to improve, will they still have to do the other shunt on Friday? I just want him to get to go home so bad. I feel like it wont be long. Keep us posted and WAY TO GO MIKEY!!!!!!!!!

What great news!! Thanks for the update! Good job, Mikey!

Mybabe4me · 07-15-2007, 06:28 AM

Hi everyone,
Mikey is still doing great. I just got and email from Becca again. And I will add that to this post she explains things so much better.lol she is there with him all the time so she knows exactly what the doctors says I am at home just getting updates like everyone else. I so wish I could be there with her, but her hubby is there with her and I do not want to take that time away from them.
Here is her post. I hope everyone has a great day today.

just wanted to let you all know that we got the results of mikeys cat scan. they actually let us see it too (its always scary seeing that-knowing how large his ventricles really are). the fluid collection on the outside is actually almost gone. however, the ventricles have grown in size again. so he will be having the shunt placed on friday, unless the ventricles continue to grow larger, then it will be sooner. but he is still doing very well. he needs to eat 75cc's every 3 hours. but they want to work him up to that amount. well last night, he ate 70 for me from bottle! so he is getting there! we are very excited and cant wait for a full recovery! talk to you all later
