When a parent learns that their baby or young child has a hearing loss, they are often left feeling alone and unsure what to do. We've been there and done that with one Deaf child already, and we've just started the journey again with our newborn son. In addition, we learned our baby also has NEHI, a rare form of childhood lung disease. We hope that sharing our experiences will help inspire and encourage other parents of children with hearing loss or who may also have NEHI.

We're Out of Surgery
Little Guy did great through the lung biopsy surgery. He hasn't had to go to ICU and is back on the pulmonology unit, but is in a lot of pain. He is being given lots of pain control medicine, but still just lays there moaning in his sleep. So sad. Poor Little Guy. He also isn't urinating, so the left side of his face is swelling. The doctors have ordered a catheter to drain the excess fluids from his bladder. He doesn't want to be touched, so I'm confident he'll be feeling the need to send a strongly worded letter to someone when he's being cathed. Hopefully, as the days go by, his pain level will subside and he'll be able to rest comfortably.

ReplyDeleteOh, bless him. He's been through a lot recently, as have mom and dad! I am praying for a fast recovery for him and for some answers.
