Go Brody Go

What a road it has been for our little man!! I know people always say how amazing their children are.... So I'm going to brag!!! This little guy is AMazing!!!! He has jumped thru so many hurdles... Been knocked down but he is back up and RUNNING! He had to go to the cath lab ... Again... This time they did find some narrowing in his pulmonary arteries. Basically think of an upside down T.... At the intersection is where they attached. The "Glenn" to his pulmonary arteries... There was some scar tissue and narrowing.. Explains why is was so fussy... The blood flow in his new surgery is passive blood flow.. So the blood runs to his pulmonary arteries just through passive flow...they balloned the intersection, thus opening the blood flow to his lungs:) along with the drainage of fluid from around his pleural space ( around his lungs) he is a much happier boy! We are much happier parents! Hoping that our little man has some easier days in the near future! We have the tube feed back in his nose.. These surgeries set babies back so quick... A week ago he was taking all bottle feeds and now were back on the stinky NG... But hopefully not for long, and honestly at this point it really is no big deal! Every time he went for a procedure... MrI.... Cath lab.... He had to be intubated and put on sedation meds.... So needless to say it takes it's toll on such a small little guy.... BUT he is our warrior and truly is an amazing gift from GOd!! He has shown us how lucky we are to have him in our lives. We always laugh now when we get a paper cut or a knee hurts or anything in regards to it hurts....we just catch ourselves saying really???? If Brody could talk he would say gimme a break a check out this scar!!!! Our little warrior earned the nickname Rambo slayer!! He even wakes up with scratches on his face to fit the part. Go Brody Go!!!! You are an amazing Boy and we love love love you! Love to all!!!!!!
