At first Jere was laid prone (on the front) to rest as seen in the earlier picture but due to the bouts of apnea (stop breathing)he was flipped over from prone to supine (on the back) hoping that there won't be any more such episodes. Prayers are activated against that coz it may bring about the delay of discharge or even another surgery. It was so painful seeing so many wires and tubes on him.
We were told that Jere had no Babinski reflex ( that is the doctor's term of running a key or tickling the soles of the foot and the toes should curl up). He seemed to have no feeling. There was also no anus puckering when the dr stimulated him near his bum. He also pee only when the nurses did bladder compression.
This means his motor movement of his legs and feet, his bowel and urinary movement are all affected.
We asked everyone to pray for all these in particular.
We just have to trust and pray.
