LOGAN UPDATE!
1 Attachment(s)
Hey Folks!
Been a little while since i posted anything much about my song, but we have some good news! Got some new people on here so to get things up to speed, my son Logan was born June 3rd 2007, the next day we found out he had a problem with his heart. They planned to watch him and see how he developed but after a couple months of being in and out of the hospital it was clear he was going to need invasive open heart surgery to get this corrected. when he was about 2 1/2 months old he crashed real hard and we were very close to losing him. when he was about 3 months old he had open heart surgert at the Childrens Hospital of Denver and they replaced his mytral valve with a mechanical valve. The surgery was a major success, we had him home a few weeks later. about 2 months or so after the surgery we had him in for a routine checkup and they found that one of the leaflets in the mechanical valve was not opening, it was stuck shut. After consideration of redoing the surgery they decided to keep a close eye on it and watch and see how he does. they did not expect it to start opening again, so if the other leaflet gets stuck shut he would immediatly die of heart failure. So, he is almost 18 months now. We just had another appointment this morning, and it looks like the stuck leaflet is now moving again!!!! This is fantastic news as it pushes out his next heart surgery by several years!! Personally i take credit for getting that leaflet unstuck, cause i scared the living shit out of him back in october with a jason-mask at walmart. :D Great way to start out a new year! https://mustangboards.com/attachment...1&d=1230763975 |

that's got to be a relief. I'm glad to hear it Chris.
|
Thats great! Keep us updated Jack!
|
thats great to hear man!

Awesome news. Congrats.

He looks good bro. I think most of us posted that he will be ok, probably because he always "looked" healthy, he's a strong little dude, and all the postive energy from this forum maybe helped you to.. Good luck in the coming years when he starts terrorizing your household. LOL. He looks like he's gonna be all boy, same as mine was 16 years ago.. :p
|
Awesome news man. Definitely a great start to the new year! :t:
|
Too bad I wasn't here when all this was going on. I definitely would have helped you in any way I could. I am glad to see that all is well and that you are watching him grow.
Cute little bugger, too! :) |
congrats on the good news.
|
Hey Jack, nice to hear something good! He seems like a real trooper. Just think in 15 years he will be beating the crap out of you.
|
hey man thats awesome news! keep us updated but what a great way to start out the year! congrats!
|
so glad to hear that Logan is doing well. That's a helluva cute kid you got there. Enjoy every day!
|
lol.. thanks for all the replies!
Yup, needless to say it is a huge relief off our chests, we were expecting that he would have to have another surgery within the next year or so, now maybe in 2-4 maybe 5 years. :D |
That's great man! Medical stuff can be a nightmare, but when it works it works! I sure hope your son's valve continues to work so mustangs can raise his heartbeat just like his dad's. ;)
