Little Man's Health Journey
Donation protected
Hello Family and Friends.
On January 23, 2020 Zach and I welcomed our beautiful gift Hayden into the world. Little did we know that our journey in life would continue in a way we did not expect.
After Hayden was born Zach and I got to meet him for a moment before he was whisked away to the NICU where he spent the first 40 days of his life at. During this time Hayden had a Mic-Key Button (feeding tube) placed and we found out the day of discharge that he has a genetic disorder called Noonan Syndrome. We have come across more medical issues that we have expected. Below is what we have learned so far:
1. Congenital Heart Defects (Surgery 7/23/20)
2. Undescended Testis / Hernia in Groin (Will need Surgery)
3. Vision Problems (MRI 8/20)
4. Feeding / Speech Problems (Has therapy 1-2 times a week)
5. Hearing we are still working on (hasn't passed 5 tests - will have tubes placed)
6. Low Muscle Tone (has therapy 2-3 times a week)
With the continued Medical Conditions the expenses can add up. Please know with your prayers, thoughts, and gifts you are helping us give Hayden the best opportunity in life.
There is no way we can express our gratitude and wholeheartedly appreciate any kindness sent our way. Thank you so much.
With Love,
Zach, Heather, and Hayden
