Unhappy OT our baby boy was born with life threatening heart defects

He is doing ok and is out of the Nicu but we are to watch him for signs of any distress. We are hoping to hold out the 1st month before he has to have his 1st heart surgery. he's going to be seeing the ped. cardiologist each week. Would you all please pray for him?

Also related to goat stuff, I think we need to get rid of at least 2 of our pregnant does. Probably both of our bucks? I can't handle goat kidding time and Isaiah's heart issues/surgery etc. at the same time. We need the $ for travel to his cardiologist appointments also asit's over 70 miles 1 way.

I don't have a digital camera, but will when we get our tax refund. i do have the laptop camera and a cell phone camera. the does are registered and from nubilop acres and the sire/s are also from nubilop and i have their papers for reg. also.

please let me know if you have interest and i'll get more info for you.

Sending up lots of prayers for your baby boy. It is amazing what modern medicine can accomplish. Please keep us updated on him when you can.

My son was born an extreme preemie, 1 pound, 10 ounces, with only a 30% chance to live at all, and very high odds of being a vegetable.
He is 3 1/2 now and playing with his toy dinosaurs , having thoroughly trashed the bedroom in his morning activities.

Keep your hopes up.

I will be saying prayers for you and your son.

Where do you live? Maybe someone close by can take care of your goats for you.
