T and P for a friend please!

[Teachermama]

She had her baby at 30 weeks 3 months ago. He was 3.6 pounds. Tiny little thing. He was in NICU for 6 weeks. He has had a rough life but is a fighter.. today he was rushed to children's hospital with possible brain damage. He was admitted it ICU and under went CT scans and X RAYS. The CT scans came back with no change which is good. The xrayed the cspine and if that comes back negative he will get the neck brace off. I just can't imagine a little 5 pound baby with a neck brace on. Anyways t an p please. I don't know what happened. .. I am trying to give them space and just let them know I am here.

So sorry to hear that. 3.6 lbs at 30 weeks? He sounds like a strong fighter! He'll definitely be in my prayers.

Yea he was really little. They did an emergency c section and it didn't look good. He surprised all the doctors and nurses.

Another Update!
Update 12:30 Sunday: Neurologist just visited and said things are looking good. He doubts there will be long term effects he thinks baby needs one or two more days for observation in icu. He gave permission for him to start eating which means no surgery. Gave mom and dad a list of things to watch for darting eyes , sensitivity to light, excessive crying , excessive sleeping, seizures. Things are progressing in good ways! Keep the prayers coming! Thanks!
