Bryson has been a trooper and gained weight from his birth weight of 4lbs 2 oz, but he has had two surgeries already that may or may not have brought us to this point

The first surgery was a colostomy on his second day of life and the second was about a month ago to create an anal opening (later to be connected to the colon, now serving the colostomy bag)

The doctors started him on some heart medication in anticipation of an open heart surgery that was known from birth ....

Bryson only has two chambers and the surgery was to correct that

Today, he was brought in for a lung scan of some kind and they found or realized (I don't know which) that he has pulmonary hyper tension (I have no idea what that is ... just passin on information) and that he has about three times more blood in his lungs than an average person (I'm using my DIL's language) and they have him on a ventilator

He was originally supposed to have his heart surgery March 26, but Monday they upped it to March 16

I don't know WHAT they're thinking now

My Son and DIL are 21, first baby, scared and I'm going to pull all markers in on this one

PLEASE pray for Bryson ... AND some of my family members that are talking trash about ... if Bryson dies, God doesn't exist .. and etcetera

We're in the beginning stages of being a mess


Here's Courtney's text .. as sent;


Well not good news we will be staying at the hospital i dont know for how long but bryson's results are not good his lungs are damaged an he has 3x the amount of blood in his lungs then the average person he got very sick on oxygen because it exspanded his lungs an allowed more blood flow in there so he is on a venilator an he will be for some time he has two very large holes in his heart an has to have his open heart done within two weeks or his chances of life are low his heart is getting weaker as each day passes even with the meds he is on he has over the normal amount of pressure in his lungs by alot please just send a prayer to bryson thats all we ask nothing else

Jehovah God, we ask that Your Holy Spirit hear our attempts to pray for Bryson, and help us pray for him and his family.
Father we ask for healing of Bryson and his family. Father, You know what we need and send it before we ask, but we ask for Blessings for the child and the family. Father, thank You for the life you have sent in this child and Bless him. Father Bless his family as they attempt to please You. Father we ask all of this in the Name of Jesus the Christ, amen.

Prayers up for little baby Bryson. Lord, shine your face on him and give him your Healing.

We have been through this very recently, and I can assure you that pediatric surgery has advanced at lightning speed, and you and your family are about to be amazed!

Our great-grandson needed a liver transplant; diagnosed at age 3 months. No family member was a match. A gorgeous young 40 year old woman stepped up out of nowhere and offered a lobe of her liver.

With remarkable doctors, nurses and auxiliary personnel, he received his liver transplant just before Christmas. He is doing remarkably well. His new liver is functioning normally. He has gained 5 lbs., has 2 teeth, is rolling over and scootching along on the floor...catching up quickly!

I couldn’t believe it! He’s a normal baby now.

It will happen for your little guy!

“Trust in the Lord for He is good; His mercy endureth forever.”

Continuing prayers up knarf. I lost 3 brothers and a sister within a week after birth. I pray God will keep Bryson in His hands and ask that his parents be given peace and understanding. I pray that our Father will draw the whole family and community together and give them the strength to turn all over to Him and His care.
