_HIRSCHSPRUNGS DISEASE _

_ON MARCH 26,2008. I GAVE BIRTH TO A 7 POUND BOY. FAMILY IS VISITING ,GLAD HE SEEMED HEALTHY SHOWING HIM OFF, WITHIN 24 HOURS HE GOT SICK. HE THREW UP AN ODD COLOR OF VOMIT. THE NURSE QUICKLY GRABBED HIM AND STATED CALM OH LET'S GET THIS CLEANED UP. YET AT TIME SHE CONTACTED THE DOCTOR. THIS WAS MY SECOND PREGNANCY. BUT I HAVE ADULT EPILEPSY DO I HAD TO GET A DOCTOR BECAUSE I WAS CONSIDERED HIGH RISK PREGNANCY. NEXT THING I KNOW PEOPLE IN UNIFORMS, ZACH IS IN A INCUBATOR READY TO BE CARE FLIGHTED TO MEDICAL CITY. MY BLOOD PRESSURE WAS 100 SOMETHING  OVER 100 SOMETHING. NURSES WERE TRYING TO CALM ME DOWN, I AM GRATEFUL THAT THE NURSE NOTICED IT AND THE HOSPITAL STATED WE THINK THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG AND WE DON'T HAVE THE TESTING LABS, AND SO FORTH LIKE BIG HOSPITALS. I MET W ZACH THE NEXT DAY AT THE NICU UNIT IN MEDICAL CITY. WHERE I MET A DR. RENARD. BEST GI SURGEON IN MEDICAL CITY. CAN'T TELL U , I WAS IN SHOCK. MY SON GOING INTO SURGERY THEY ARE COMING AT ME W ALL THESE QUESTIONS. MY BOY AT 2 DAYS OLD DIAGNOSED WITH HIRSCHSPRUNGS.  THEY PUT A COLOSTOMY BAG ON HIM AND INFORMED ME HE HAD NO GANGLION CELLS.  AT 3 MONTHS IT WAS TAKEN OFF THROUGH A SIMPLE PULL THROUGH, BUT OF COURSE ISSUES, AFTER ISSUES. MY SON HAS HAD EVERYTHING U COULD THINK OF AND ALL KINDS OF TREATMENTS OVER THE YEARS. HE IS 7 NOW AND WE ARE ON THE DOWN HILL SLOPE.  WE HAVE A DR. MEGANSON AT CHILDREN'S WHO IS GREAT. HE IS FIXING MY SON. MY SON IS IN SECOND GRADE AND WAS JUST INFORMED HE WILL BE ATTENDING A GIFTED AND TALENTED SCHOOL, DESPITE ALL THE PAIN ALL THE SURGERIES,  HE JUST KEPT GOING W THE FLOW. HIS LOWEST GRADE IS A 97 EVER. MY SON IS VERY EDUCATED ,I WISH HE COULD TALK TO OTHER CHILDREN, BECAUSE HE HAS IT DOWN. KNOWS HIS BODY PRONOUNCES STUFF I STILL HAVE PROBLEMS SAYING. IT'S BEEN THE TOUGHEST 7 YEARS, BUT NOW OR ACTUALLY EVERY RIME HE SMILES AT ME, IS. WORTH ALL THE NIGHTS I CRIED AND CRIED. ANY QUESTIONS ANYONE MAY HAVE. PLEASE ASK. I KNOW HOW TRAUMATIZED AND STRESSFUL THIS CAN BE._
