A special evening...

Wyatt's wonderful nurse Susan got married today and we are so happy for her!!! She deserves every thing in the world because Wyatt is who he is today because of her:) She gives her 100% into Wyatt's care and she has become part of our family. Today was a very special day and we were honored to be at the initmate gathering of 40 family and friends. Wyatt on the other hand was very jealous, because he thinks Susan is his girlfriend. At the wedding Wyatt could not understand why he did not have Susan just to himself. He kept yelling out "Susan!!" She was so sweet and gave him lots of attention. Wyatt looked very charming in his suit and tie. Susan wore her mother's wedding dress .... It was a very nice evening.

Hurdles that I faced and achieved!

After birth, I was placed on ECMO at Johns Hopkins Hospital for 13 days. On day 13, I had a surgery to repair my hernia and was removed from ECMO, but my organs would not fit in my abdomen. I had a silo for a week and then surgery to place the organs back in the abdomen. Then, part of my intestines re-herniated into my chest cavity two months later and I had another surgery to repair that. After my first surgery, I experienced an intraventricular hemorrhage in my brain and at four months old I received a VP shunt. After I was extubated, I learned that I have right vocal cord paralysis. Then I had g-tube surgery and after I finally got to go home after 5 longs months at Johns Hopkins and Mt. Washington Hospital! Only for a few weeks, though. In mid-April my intestines reherniated again and sent me into surgery. I came home, and had a long run before my THIRD reherniation in the beginning of September on Labor Day weekend in 2008. Then I was hospitalized for twice during the winter 2009 for two respiratory infections. Well, I almost lasted a year until my next surgery! Just this past June, in 2009, I had surgery to wrap my stomach around the esophagus, a nissen. This has helped with my reflux and my hiatal hernia. I will be 2 in October, I love scooting around but refuse to stand up and walk. I am a little miracle and thank God, my doctors, my nurses, family, and friends for my strength, my fight and a happy life.
