Wow, I have never been so physically and emotionally drained in my entire life. We know many of you are concerned and we want to update you all. We literally have not had any time to sit down since our baby boy was born. Here is a quick update. As I have more time I will update each day one step at a time.
Stockton Seth Watson was born on July 30, 2011 much to our surprise. He is the cutest thing ever! We were waiting to do the surgery until he was about 7 days old. Well, Tuesday morning he took a bad turn and was in critical condition. We literally pleaded and cried to Heavenly Father to save our baby. He had some fluid around his lungs that was making it hard for him to breath. This was not his fault. The fluid was IV nutrition that was inserted through a PICC line in his right arm. So the doctors intubated him and that is where he stayed the rest of the day. Because of this episode we were scheduled for surgery today, Wednesday. He went in this morning at 8am and we just got news at 3:30pm that he is out. The surgery went perfectly and there were no surprises. We have not been up to see him because it takes awhile to get him all set up and cleaned. We felt calm and comforted by our Heavenly Father all day. I can not tell you how much the Lord has helped us these last few days.
We know many of you are concerned and want more information. I would love to talk or e-mail each one of you but that is just not possible. When I have a minute to myself I am running to the bathroom or going to downstairs to pump. I love you all and I am so grateful for all you. Stockton is a trooper and we feel so blessed to have this angel in our lives. Keep praying for him and our family. Thank you.
*We have so many pictures of our little guy but at the moment I don't have my camera cord.
