Unhappy

got bad news last night


Well


We had to take Savannah to see a spec last night at childrens hospital.She had some xrays taken of her neck.We found out there might be a problem with something to do with her neck or spine.The dos found what she called some unwanted spots on the exray.

So now we get to see a (ill sell the best I can) a neo surgeon to see what he thinks.My wife is pretty up set.This was just to be a routine check up at childrens to montitor her growth and so on that comes with up syndrome

The doc did say it could be nothing and not to get to worked up over it but like yeah right now you got us worried again.Can you say if it rains it pours?

She is only three and she has been through so much already.I have seen her strapped to so many different tables and went thru so many test.But she keeps plugging thru.She is my hero!! No matter what, when they say she can`t do this or will never do that she proves them wrong.

thanks for letting me get a little off my chest

Ron

Hi Ron,

I am so very sorry to hear this! We'll be thinking of you all and keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.

I just went back to the "Little Angel" pic you posted awhile back, with your daughter giving you the big smooch from the floor... She is so precious and so lucky to have such caring, loving, proud parents!

We'll be keeping the faith with you,
Shirley

Ron,
I hope that everything will be alright with Savannah. Nothing is more precious than our children and we hurt when they do. FishGirl was very premature and had serious kidney problems and defects that required treatment for the first 5 years. She's now healthy and doing great, despite the slow start.

Prayers for Savannah and your family.
Dick

Ron- I haven't looked at M'ville in a while.

I'm right in there with all the others here on TRT. It's great to have family to pray for you from all points of the map. Love abounds!!

Special hugs for Savannah and her loving parents!

Ron, where you going? My 1yr old (at the time, 2 1/2yr now) lil girl had a large hole in her aorta and it was making her heart get MANY times bigger than normal. She had backflow, leakage to the other side, etc. We went to Cosairs in Louisville and they have some A1 kids docs there. She had open heart surgery for 6hrs. God really took care of her and us and guided the doctors hands. She is now 100% and all she has is a white line down her chest.

I'd recommend them 100%

Prayers going out for your lil one....
