J trackback : 7th July 2006 - update


Well, that's me! looking quite fresh ah?
But of coz! That is 0730 in the morning.
Every morning, i would rush to hospital juz to say the morning prayers for my little one and also to catch the doctors who make their rounds at that time for updates.

and so this was the update i got
Blood count ok

MRI scan shows chiari malformation type 2 and syringomyelia
and myelomeningocele
there is absense of corpus callosum(the bunch of nerves that communicates between the right and left brain) and mild hydrocephalus (water accumulating in the head) is seen. we gotta pray against the increase in circumference of his head in terms of water accumulating there.

there is also more than normal water in the spine which we pray that all the extra water would miraculously by the grace of GOD return to normal.

Jere's a fighter and a sweetpea.
He opened his eyes and smiled at me this morning.
I know I gotta keep strong and positive.
I am praying hard and I know lots of people out there are doing that for bb jere too. Thank you Lord.

Good news is latest update in the evening, no more episodes of stop breathing.
and he's allowed to take 5ml of ebm every 3 hourly. doc is monitoring his liquid intake as there is more than normal amount of water in his head and spine which I pray that it will drain off and disapear miraculously by God's grace and will soon revert back to normal.

Also please pray for the control of his bladder and bowel movement. So far when stimulated, seems like no response. and his toes and feet too when stimulated also toes not moving. Please pray that all these will develop.

thank u all.

oh ... nat is ok. doesn't really know. cannot tell him. he thinks too much. so now he juz thinks bb in hospital coz still too small, well, that's what we told him.
he is really anxious to meet his didi
