Guest guest Posted December 3, 2001 Report Share Posted December 3, 2001 Thank you Lynn, Surgery is Dec. 6th. We have to be there at 5am. We are trying to get things that he will need after surgery now. I got a baby monitor so that during the night if he needs me all he as to do is give a little shout. Today I am getting him some cheap sweat pants so we can cut the leg cuff off to fit over his cast. I am trying to get the school to get his school work together for the next 2 1/2 weeks. I don't plan on him going back to school until after the new year. He is getting a little nervous and thats understandable. He is a bit excited too. I will let you all know how he is when i get him home. Say a little prayer for him please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 Hey everyone, did well in surgery yesterday. When he woke up he had trouble though. His blood pressure went up and he was real upset and in alot of pain. He not once complained about his wrist, which in fact didn't have a cyst. The fluid had become solid in a way and the dr trimmed that up but looks like the wrist bone has fused itself. He will always have a lump in his wrist. His foot is really giving him pain. They gave him 22 ccs of moraphine. The gases they used to put him to sleep caused him to have trouble breathing when he woke up. His oxygen sats keep dropping down to 64% when he would fall asleep. He didn't rest at all at the hospital cause he would realize he wasn't breathing when he fell asleep and he would jump to kick start and he would get all upset again.They finally gave him a breathing treatment. He was finally stable enough to come home yesterday afternoon. The dr had ordered crutches for him but there was no way he could use them so the nurse said a walker. I told her if he can't use crutches how is he suppose to use a walker and she said well he still has one good hand. I almost fell out at that point. I said its dangerous to use a walker with one hand there would be no balance etc. The nurse case manager came down and she told them all there was no way he could use crutches or a walker and they got him a wheelchair. That is working very well. All 's brothers are being wonderful helping out. Jake won't go to school until Monday cause he is so worried about . He came to the hospital yesterday morning and stayed until we left. He said he would not come home without jesse. He sat glued to the monitor watching 's oxygen sats. Everytime it got below 90% he would say Mom, get the nurse. I think its really sweet that Jake is so protective of . Well is sleeping right now so iam going to take a cat nap while i can. Oh yeah i forgot. We have to go through putting him to sleep again next week. The dr said he was going to put him to sleep and put the cast on him. That should be fun. I will let you know how he is doing in a couple of days. Ya'll take care. and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2001 Report Share Posted December 8, 2001 Hi & & a special hug to all those brothers! Some nurses aren't very bright. I've had my share. The other thing that gets me about some nurses is they think they know more about your disease than you do. I like to say, I've had this disease longer than you've been in school and on duty and could drop my own blood blind folded! It's funny, I told my Remicade nurse this and she said, " OK. That I could try it. " She wouldn't let me. I was sad, because I knew I'd surprise her. Anyway, totally away from what I was gonna talk about. I just want to wish an easy recovery! He is so lucky to have such great brothers! I still remember when I was about 19 and had a horrible flare and my hips were so bad I couldn't walk, sit, lay down, and had to go to the bathroom! My brother picked me up, deposited me at the bathroom door, and as soon as he heard me opening the door he was back to take me back to the couch. That's one of my favorite memories. Shel, not sure why has to be put to sleep to have a cast put on? So, , let your brothers carry ya to the bathroom if it's possible. All the memories you're making now and going to be worth more than gold when you get older! I promise you that! ~Hugs & Kisses, Kiddo!~ ~Rainy Sue Re: [ ] and surgery > Hey everyone, > > did well in surgery yesterday.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2001 Report Share Posted December 10, 2001 Sher, Thank you for your post. i try to read all the post even if idon't post. i usually have lot's going on with jesse and his 4 brothers. You have joined a great group and i look forward to getting to know you. I will fill you and all the new members in on who we are. is my 12 year old son who was dx when he was 4 with JRA and with related lung disease at 6. We live in alabama and have finally found the most wonderful RA dr. We have had some good luck in the past 2 years. When i first joined this group could barely move and now he is more active then he has ever been thanks to his RA dr. takes a list of meds that i can't even remember without looking and Enbrel is one of them. The enbrel has been 's ticket to freedom and a real childhood. just had surgery on his left foot. He was born with a club foot and had surgery at 10 months old but the JRA has caused the bones to move so we had it straightend out and toe bones fused. They were causing a bone to protrude the outside of his foot and that would be very painful. He also had surgery on the left wrist at the same time. They thought it was a cyst but turned out to be joint fluid that had harden up so they trimmed that away and he should have a bit more range of motion. the wrist has started to fuse itself as well. also has an older brother who is almost 15 and 3 younger brothers, 11, 7 and 5. We are a close family. My boyfriend lives here with us and between him and the kids have talked me into trying for a little girl. My ex husband lives in FL and we are great friends and he tries real hard to be here when ever the boys need him. Gee, i can't think about anything else right now only cause my brain is like mush. Not sleeping to well cause i worry about jesse. I know there is lots more but i just can't think. is doing well right now. He goes the 14th back to the or for a cast on his foot. Hopefully no trouble this time. take care, and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2001 Report Share Posted December 10, 2001 Sue, They told me cause he has so much pain and such they rather put him under in a twilght sleep so as not to cause him more pain. I think i like that idea. He sure can't handle anymore right now. I can tell you this even though he is doing good, he sure is moody and if he keeps it up he and I are gonna go round and round. I guess it's his age. He was moody even before surgery. PUBERTY. Just a couple months before he is 13.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2001 Report Share Posted December 11, 2001 Hi , Hope is feeling better? He sure has been through a lot. I'm okay, eating is still a problem plus the fatigue. I get through it though. Just have to push myself. I wish I had known about the eating problems. Couldn't changed anything but it would have been nice to be ready for it. I knew there would be some problems but I thought that was corrected with a low fat diet, that is just the beginning. But I know me and I will make it through all this stuff. Bet you are busy with Christmas. I remember when my kids were little and Christmas, it was fun. Hope you and are able to relax a little today, Lynn ---------- > From: 12341234@... > > Subject: Re: [ ] and surgery > Date: Monday, December 10, 2001 7:29 PM > > Thanks Lynn. How are you feeling?

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2001 Report Share Posted December 14, 2001 Hey everyone, went and got his cast put on today. He did great after going to the OR. They gave him a breathing treatment before he went to the OR and after they put him to sleep they gave him an injection of steroids and one for nausea. He did great. He goes back to the OR in a month to have the cast removed and the pin removed. He doesn't know he has the pin in his foot. If he did he would have a fit. We decided it was best not for him to know right now. I was reading Sher's post about NO CURE. One of the hardest things I have ever had to do was to tell Jesee at the age of 4 that there was no cure for his JRA. At age 12 he understands there isn't one and also understands new treatments are coming out every year. Now at age 7 wants a cure for his older brother in the worst way. Lately, at least once a week he will ask me if still has his disease. He always says he really wants cured. Iam sure will start the same thing very soon. and went with us to the hospital today. had conversations with just about everyone in the waiting room. He ask a man for permission to talk with his wife while he got ready for his surgery. He also asked if it was ok to sit next to his wife. The man gave his permission and proceeded to give the woman his life story. She loved it. At one point I came out to the waiting room and the man was asking if he had any sisters and I heard say no but my mom is gonna have a baby in a few weeks and said with a smile as i walked in the waiting room OH NO SHE'S NOT. The whole waiting room broke up into laughter. said well some day she is. I thought it was very cute. Ok now little one's want to go to cartoonnetwork.com. gotta go. take care everyone, and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2001 Report Share Posted December 15, 2001 , I'm glad it's over and hope has no problems with the cast or pin. sounds like a real charm. He probably made that woman so relaxed that she forget what she was there for. It must have been very difficult to tell your child that he has an incurable disease. I pray the future scientific discoveries change this. As so eloquently said, we can't ever give up hope. a On Fri, 14 December 2001, 12341234@... wrote: > > <html><body> > > > <tt> > Hey everyone,<BR> > <BR> > went and got his cast put on today.

Please give us the date when you got it! Love, HRH From: infantile scoliosis treatment [mailto:infantile scoliosis treatment ] On Behalf Of Gail Sent: Sunday, October 24, 2010 5:23 PM nov98moms ; infantile scoliosis treatment ; Congenital Subject: and surgery Looks like will be having some minor surgery next month. Dr. Crawford looked at her on Friday and sent us to Plastic Surgery. The surgeon, Dr. Billimare, will see if he can pad her attachment site so she doesn't have the " divot " (what I call it anyway) any longer and feel more comfortable. Dr. Crawford didn't want to adjust her Veptr's or anything because right now her shoulder's look level and everything else looks good. It will be day surgery and I should know tomorrow what date we will go. They mentioned the 2nd which would be great as she doesn't have school that day (Election Day) anyway. Will keep you informed.
