he has gone from bad to worse. he is no longer feeding. when he is awake his chest comes in completely and he struggles to breath. he vomits his tube feeds and is always sleeping.
they know that there is something wrong. so they are going to put a camera down his throat on thursday, do scans and xrays on wednesday, and might have to send him for an mri at westmead at some point this week.
they said worst case scenario is that his lungs will completely fail, and he will need a transplant, and if they cannot find a suitable donor he might die.
i dont want to loose my baby, god i have lost so much in these past months, what did i do? it is not fair. i just want to hit somone. howcan god be so cruel? how can his father still be going away this weekend and turning his phone off. what if hayden dies, and no one can reach him for days?
what if grant is his only suitable donor for blood, or something else and he just neglects that coz he is too busy partying.
its just not fair, im loosing it, i honestly am. i cant take anymore bad news. i couldnt physically get out of bed last night to get to my kids who were screaming. i just hate everything right now, i hate the world, i ate the fact that i cant do anything to help my son, or my other children, i hate that im loosing my mind. and i hate the man i married, no i dont hate that man, i hate the man he has become......
please pray for my son, please pray that we will get through this.

Please stay positive for your bubba!
He needs you right!
Please get someone to take you to him and look after J & J so you can be with him.

Is there anyone you can talk to? Anyone that can be with you and help you with the kids for a while?

Hayden is in my prayers, poor lil bubba.
He will pull through, he's a fighter like his mum!

hugs!

I am here, crying for you and your family. I am so sorry that you are having to go through this.

What an awful situation to be in. I pray that God gives you strength to get through this awful time, and that he lays his healing hand on dear Hayden's lungs.

I see that you're wanting to find someone to take your anger out on at the moment.

Your husband also seems to be struggling with things and maybe his only way of dealing with the hurt is to run away from things. Not that that is Ok, :shame: but humans are interesting beings and our behaviours are not always predictable. I also pray that he comes to his senses and stays around to support you and your children.

If you need to chat please pm me and I will do my best to listen. I can't promise to say much but I will listen.

:hugs:

You are in my prayers

Oh Danielle :hugs:

I am so sorry things aren't going well for your little man. I don't really know what to say, just that I hope with all of my heart that he, and you, pull through this.

You have been through so much lately, I commend you on your strength so far. I know you don't FEEL strong, but you are :hugs:

I strongly suggest getting someone to have a stern word with Grant, he is being so disgustingly selfish right now it sickens me that he is planning on going away whilst your little man's life hangs in the balance. :shame:

Remember if you need anything AT ALL please let me know. I mean that.

Oh hun:hugs:. Be angry!I know I would be.You haven't done anything to deserve this at all.These things are sometimes sent to 'try us' as the saying goes.

Massive huge hugs for you and Hayden.:fingerscrossed: the little angel gets better really soon for you.

As for Grant well all I can say is :shame: on him.He's definitely showing his true colours.

We're all here for you hun:hugs:

EmsMum72
04-06-2007, 09:49
I'm so sorry to hear about the struggle your baby boy is having. When Hayden pulls through (which I pray he will) I think you should kick Grant's a** to the curb. If he's going to go away partying, drinking etc at a time like this when, as you said, he could be the only possible donor (let alone turn his phone off :banghead: ) then he doesn't deserve to have any of you in his life! What a d**k!!

Anyway, just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you Danielle. You haven't had it easy lately that's for sure. :hugs: Hope Hayden keeps fighting and gets better soon.

I just drew a fairy card for him and you.....

"Empowerment": You're more powerful than you realize. It's safe for you to be powerful.

Meaning: You're no longer willing to see yourself as a victim in any way. It means letting go of all blame with respect to other people, past conditions, or present circumstances.

i'm back from the hospital finally.
he is doing ok atm. still only tube feeds, and when he is awake he has alot of trouble breathing but the best thing in the world happened today, he laughed and smiled at me. it was one of those first high pitched squealy laughs but for only 2 weeks old thats pretty good. most bubbas dont do them until 4-6 weeks. the nurse saw it too, she said it was the real thing, and got all teary.
i also saw a psychologist today for myself and a social worker. i have PND unfortunantly, i see them again on thursday to see if i will need to go on meds, or if i can just go to counsilling.
and i also had a big meeting with the doctors today. they are leaning more towards it being a heart issue. so they did an xray this afternoon and will know the results of that tomorrow morning. then on wednesday they do an ultrasound of his heart, and friday they take a whole heap of bloods. then on saturday they might be sending us over to westmead hospital, depending on the other results for an MRI scan to check out everything in detail, and see some specialists.
so will have all my answers by next week.
he is strong, and we will pull through this, basically coz im a pushy mummy and i wont let it happen anyother way. he has to get through this, coz i need him to come home and be with me and his big brother and sister, so we can be happy and start our lives over in a more posotive way, without any more dramas hopefully.
and as for his father, well i hope he is happy doing whatever he chooses to do with his life. and as far as im concerned i got the better end of the deal, these 3 wonderful beautiful children, who make me more happy then words can say. he doesnt have that, besides 2 nights a month, so he's the one loosing out in the end, not me.

Its an attitude like that that will get you far in life hun. It will also show strength and courage to your children who will grow up idolising their mummy. You'll see.......everything will be the way you want it to be very very soon.

That's right, you got the better deal, you have your children, who love and care for you. You can see their milestones, see them growing up and becoming more and more an own and independet person and he gets nothing.
I can only imagine what you have to go through but I wish you all the best, for Hayden, a wonderful name btw and for yourself and your family.
You seem to be a very strong and willing person and I hope that Hayden is a little fighter as well.
It's so unfair, that he has to go through so many medical tests at such a young age.:no:

I keep my fingers crossed for a good result, wishing you all the strengths you need.

What lovely news about his smile.

You are doing a wonderful job, I can't understand how a father can not care about what is currently going on with his son. Seperated or not he is still the father.

I hope Hayden gives you a lovely big smile tomorrow too:hugs:

Each day means that you are both getting stronger. You may have PND but you sound clear in your thoughts which is a very good thing. And that little smile is telling you that he's going to fight to be with you!

We all look forward to hearing the next update.

I think its more a case of the awful things happening to you than PND. htink about it, your hubby leaves, you have to have a baby alone, he is unwell etc. not to mention all your hormones. i think its all just piling up to be honest. :hugs:

Be strong Danielle, you have been through so much the past few weeks.

I'm sooo glad to read that Hayden's getting better and hopefully the doctors will find out what is wrong with him and help him get better. It's sooo sweet that he gave you a giggle and smile (that's amazing!!)

I pray that everything starts to look better for you.
