Guest guest Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 Caleb, a six month old little boy with CHARGE, is having a very difficult time. I learned of him through a mutual friend in our hometown, but I have yet to talk with the parents. Below is the update. Please keep them in your prayers... Unfortunately, I have some bad news. We've learned that 's baby has no immune system. He's six months old and has been sick continually for the past couple months. They only now realized this problem because he has grown out of whatever immunity he had from . Doctors at Duke believe they can do a thymus gland transplant, so the challenge will be helping Caleb survive until that can occur -- and obviously we have no idea when it can happen. They have to keep him in a bubble, so the family is having a really rough time. Anyway, I know your prayer list is already long, but please this little guy to your list of CHARGErs to pray for.
