As you know my children have ADD ADHD and I ask why but remember the song you have playing on your blog God is an awesome God. Maybe that will help you it did me today.

It sounds like he just started having siezures and never really got a diffinitive answer. Your story sounds so familiar. It brought back memories. I kind of wish I had a blog back then. Some things you don't want to remember but it is nice to have. It brought back times when he was so sick and doctors would be running around. Wow, these boys are kindred spirits.Laceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03321275110857561824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892567951346285110.post-37520466987180322642009-03-28T10:04:00.000-04:002009-03-28T10:04:00.000-04:00I am sorry you are having a hard time with these d...I am sorry you are having a hard time with these dark emotions. The good news is that God understands our sadness, anger and questioning. He is the One who created those emotions!<BR/><BR/>I have asked why so many times, about Marissa and other kiddos. It is SO difficult to try to understand that we are not meant to understand in this life! Frustrating!<BR/><BR/>Know that I am praying for Gavin and so many other kids, as well as you and the rest of your family. I pray you can find peace and comfort in your dark hours.<BR/><BR/>AliciaAliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04061378391288892565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892567951346285110.post-1077962006319522162009-03-27T19:48:00.000-04:002009-03-27T19:48:00.000-04:00I don't think we'll ever get over what happened. A...I don't think we'll ever get over what happened. And it makes it worse when it could have been prevented. I said if he was to of had a stroke from heart surgery or something, thats a risk that comes with heart surgery. But when they don't do their job and its something so trivial that WE knew about it makes it so much harder. <BR/>Have you pursued the hospital? You probably know that we already settled ours, it helps with the financial burden, but it doesn't help what happened. One good thing in our situation is the doc that was there when it happened no longer works there, and that happened right when we settled, so I'd like to think that we helped that. I don't want to sound like a horrible person, but this doctor was horrid. I still hear horror stories about her from moms.<BR/><BR/>I do look at other downs kids and think that Jax could be doing what they are doing, walking, and even laughing. He is just trying to survive, his brain still goes into status once and a while, ever time it does that it hurts his brain more. And there is a huge chance that he could go into status and never come out. <BR/>You should have seen the PICU when Jax injury happened. The whole place was on pins and needles. I had nurses crying to me. A lot of them had been taking care of him for the last three months. It was horrible, and its ebedded in my brain forever. <BR/>Sorry to start my story about Jax and make you sad :(<BR/>Hugs from me and JaxLaceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03321275110857561824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892567951346285110.post-86032139137680130882009-03-27T19:37:00.000-04:002009-03-27T19:37:00.000-04:00I know it does no good to ask why, but recently I ...I know it does no good to ask why, but recently I have been doing the same thing! My peanut will be in 1st grade next year. She should be walking and running and reading and writing and taking tests!!<BR/><BR/>It's not fair, and we can't change that. We deserve a time to vent and yell and cry. Holding it all inside is not healthy.<BR/><BR/>In the end, our kids are AWESOME and that's that. :)ANewKindOfPerfecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978293330074662766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892567951346285110.post-49546990066030538332009-03-27T16:24:00.000-04:002009-03-27T16:24:00.000-04:00Even though Marie and Gavin are so, so different (...Even though Marie and Gavin are so, so different (and yet so similar) you once again have echoed my thoughts.

We live in the same state as Jaxson and Lacey, and my sonfell victim to the hosptial's negligence as well. <BR/><BR/>I myself have often asked why? Why do these kids have to go through so much? <BR/><BR/>All I know is that although our little guy has been through alot, we are all blessed beyond belief for having him in our lives. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing Gavin, he is so beautiful. <BR/><BR/>((HUGS))Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10449171111666867354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892567951346285110.post-63695995340846700492009-03-27T14:54:00.000-04:002009-03-27T14:54:00.000-04:00Sometimes we have to vent, and thats ok.
