my nephew's dilema - aarrgghhh!!!

[Chero-King]

Wish the best to him and the rest of your family, hope he gets better.

Thats damn good to hear he's doin better Joe!

Everyone is still in my prayers.

thats the beauty of technology in medicine these days. these things they use in people to replace "parts" that are not functioning properly are designed to easily last a lifetime or longer!

also the perseverence of children is unlike that of any grownup. kids heal good , they are always optimistic. there is something to be said about children and how they cope with life. i could learn a thing or two from seeing how some of them cope with what they have been given yet they can still crack a smile before anyone i know.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

.....looks like the Dr's have dedcided to keep him sedated untill tomorow around noon, that way his heart and little body can relax and de-stress....things are starting to look in an upward direction though.

Well as of yesterday Anotnio is off the breathing machine and breathing on his own. He's still in the ICU but he's doing WAY better. He can talk, he laughs, he's eating real food (mac & cheese) and on the road to recovery.

On a side note, I sent a link to this thread to my sister, both she and my brother-in-law read every response and it made them feel better knowing everyone was out there thinking about their son.

Thanks again for all the good wishes, they definitely helped!!!

Great news Joe!

I too had a time where i asked for prayers here for my son, the outpouring support was inspiring.

Mac and Cheese....that'll cure any ailment known to man...it's all a matter of time till he comes home now. arty:

Wow...didn't see this thread until now.

Having a son that age it hits close to home. I really really hope everything turns out ok.

Good luck!
