Susie Belcher
Baby Sid had the hole in his heart repaired a few weeks ago. All seemingly went well until he developed respiratory issues which they do not know whether related to the heart surgery, virus, pneumonia etc. So he is back in the NICU @ Boston Children's Hospital. His GI tube was leaking and that has been changed so that nutrition now goes directly into his intestines, bypassing the stomach....all promoting growth which is what he needs leading up to the esphoageal procedure now tentatively scheduled for 8/30. They will do the "Foker" procedure which necessitates the baby be put into a coma and paralyzed for as much as 3 weeks. This is because they want zero movement so the sutures remain intact. The team is considered the best in the world so we are remaining confident that all will go well. Please pray for this sweet little boy and his parents who are navigating extremely challenging logistics between Providence and Boston and their 3 year old daughter!
