We are back!

It happened, we returned back to the place I never wanted to see again~Pittsburgh Children's Hospital.  In my mind I hoped and prayed we wouldn't return, but deep down (maybe mothers intuition again) I knew we would be back and he would need surgery again.  His pediatrician is on the same page as I am and says that he will need his PDA completely closed and possibly his VSD closed in order to solve all of his problems. He has been so incredible and going above and beyond what he should be doing! If it wasn't for him we wouldn't be here today trying to figure out and solve all of Xavier's problems that he is dealing with even post surgery.  The next step while in the hospital is to test for other possibilities as to why he isn't eating well and now vomiting.  The other thing to explore is that why after this last surgery why they had to increase his medicine when they should have been able to decrease and potentially get rid of it all together.  Obviously the holes in his heart are causing problems and pushing more fluid into his lungs for him to need his medicine. Pray they don't play the "wait and see" game, and they take action immediately.  Please pray that God gives the doctors wisdom to find the answers so this little guy can get 100% better and go home and thrive with his big sisters! 


My little guy all snuggled and fast asleep~he's had a long day!
