and found that he has Prloric Stenosis. This is a rapid narrowing of the begining of the small intestine. We should find out when the surgery will take place and at what hospital. He has lost so much weight that even the newborn diapers just hang on him. Most of the time he is lifeless in someones arms or he is crying or throwing up. He is always cold and we have to keep him wraped up in heavy blankets. Really hot here in AR.still and we had to go find heavy baby blankets for him. I will post the surgery time as soon as I get it.Thanks

Nmm so very sorry, Pyloric stenosis in itself does happen sometimes but it doesn't usually take so long for them to suspect this. My first job after nursing school was in pediatric clinic. God makes these little fellows tough but he'll stay in my prayers till it's all over & he is on the rebound & gaining wt after his surgery. Have faith dear U already have seen prayer at work. *4U Lillian

Well it took tham long enough to run the
UGI NMM Hugs & prayers. Lillian

Dear Paula, I know how you feel, and I'm praying for Zachary, for a successful surgery and speedy recovery. Love, Yoriko

I pray for excellent and speedy results. It is so scary when they are that little. You just feel helpless. Please know that God is with you and will help all of you through this.

Yes our little angel is in good hands. Thank you

Paula, I sincerely hope all will be well with your little Zachary. It's so very hard when the little ones are ill, and they don't understand, and can't tell you what's happening. But at least you have good doctors, and thank God we live in a time when something can be done and Zachary can go on to live a good life! Hang in there, you have my best thoughts, prayers, and hugs.

Dear Paula,
My prayers are with little Zachary and with the family as he undergoes this surgery. It is my understanding that it is a common surgery that is done frequently. Love and hugs to you all.

If we have to wait very long they will hospitaliez him because he is so weak. Thanks for the prayers.

Thanks

This is so sad and I hope that things will go well for you all. Do not know if you are already doing this, but by covering his head will also help to keep his body heat. We are knitting small caps for prem babies and it help with their heat. Please keep us up to date. God bless you all. Elize

Thank you

Very special prayers. Scary when children are suffering, isn't it. Sure hope the surgery goes well. Babies respond so quickly - let's pray Zachary does, too. He'll probably grow up to be a large baby - now that they have found the cause of his vomiting.

Hang tight!! God's watching over you and Zachary.

You would think I would be a pro after what we went thru with Adelaide.Thanks

What a scary thing to have happen. You have my prayers for the family and for little Zachary and his doctors. I pray that the surgery will be soon and quickly over so that he will be able to gain strength and be happy and healthy.

So do we. Thanks

We will pray for Zachary and all of your family! May the Lord ease this time until it can be permanently corrected. I pray for the surgeons and against any potential complications that would thwart a swift, complete recovery! Mercy to you and your family as tending Zachary would have to be so difficult. Praise God you at least know the problem and the solution! Do keep us informed. love, judy
