Life is not fair

[shattered dreams]

My son and his wife just had my 3rd grandson about three weeks ago, and only half of his brain developed. His name is Jackson, he has been having seizures and is back in the hospital, my son is hysterical, as he was just informed that Jackson is not going to make it, Doctors have done everything they can do. that's all we know right now.

we are just devastated he is just 3 weeks old and they don't think he's going to make it through the week,
he is being transferred to the children's speciality trauma hospital.

I never thought that I could end up more depressed than the day I found this site, I'm at a loss for words, we are just so devastated right now, i've reached an all time low...

I'm so sorry, wish I could do more. Please know you and your family are in my thoughts. Sending you hugs and strength at this difficult time.

Shattered, that is just so sad. I'm sorry my friend. Know that you and your family as well as Jackson are all in my prayers.

It truly is not fair in any way because things like this happen. I get it. I really do. Thinking about you.

I am more sorry than I can say with words here. This post brought me to tears.

We will be here to support you how we can through this painful time.

Ty all for being here, and sharing in our pain, This was supposed to be a beautiful blessing and yet it's been a complete tragedy, I don't even know if there are words that can describe the grief we are going through,

My son was born with polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, and he beat all odds and grew to be a proud young man, at first my son had said that Dr.'s thought that Jackson might make it to his 2nd birthday, but he hasn't responded well to any of the anti seizure meds and had to be returned to the hospital, for 24/hr trauma care. i'm in a downward spiral that just keeps getting bigger and bigger...

Hi @shattered dreams I am so sorry This is really devastating news and tragic. I will say a prayer for Jackson, bless his little heart. If you need someone to talk to don't hesitate to contact me, I might not have advice but I will listen and be there for you. hugs

 

[shattered dreams]

My son is on his way over to talk to us about Jackson and what the Dr.'s at the children's hospital are thinking...

however small, we may have a glimmer of hope...

Hoping all goes well. That is truly terrible news.

I'm so sorry to be reading this, it's brought tears to my eyes. I'll send an extra prayer tonight for you and your family.

 

[shattered dreams]

Ty all,

This has been so painful to our family, we are still waiting for my son to get here so we can find out what the Dr.'s at children's hosp. are thinking, I will post as soon as i find out.

ty all for your caring support, i'm trying so hard to stay safe, and without all of you, i'm not sure i could do it alone

 

[Fudgewobble]

It is just so heartbreaking and I have not experienced that kind of pain. We are all here for you when you need. X

Well, the Dr.'s at the children's hosp. don't agree with the original diagnoses from the community hosp.
they seem to think that although the right side of Jackson's brain did not develop, that he can still make it, they have switched all of his meds around and they will have to wait until between 6-8 months and then they will do a surgery to remove part of the right side of the brain, they say there will still be the damage already done, and can not say what his level of function will be.

they said it could go one of two ways, either he will have some function or he may not be able to function much at all, right now there are still more questions than there are answers. it's unclear how long he will have to stay in the hosp.
