January 30, 2011

            Today has been a rough day.  We have talked to doctors and nurses and tons of people today.  It all seems to be a blur.  Landon was being temper mental this morning making them work.  He has been on a lot of support from the ECMO machine these past couple of days.  Tomorrow will be the day that he comes off ECMO and see how well he does without it.  We are feeling every emotion possible at this point I think.  I'm really not understanding why he's going through this but I know that God has a plan.  We're just not always aware of that reason.  I never imagined how quick your child could rip your heart out of your chest and claim it as theirs.  We are asking for prayers for Baby Landon and our entire family as tomorrow will be a very very emotional day for our family.  Thank you all!

  1. Praying and Praying Amanda. You are right He does have a plan. Stay strong.

    "God help little Landon as he needs you dearly right now. His parents want him desperately here with them. Please Lord help him off EMCO. Show Yourself to them today. Give them peace as this is extremely hard to go through. We love you in His name. Amen"

    Amanda I wish I had answers.... know that I care deeply.

  2. just found the link to your blog through cherubs. our little boy has been home for 4 days today after a 9 week stay in the nicu at children's in birmingham and then at uab. i've read through your whole blog and am in tears at how familiar your every emotion is to my own heart. no one can fully understand what you're going through until they've been there. please feel free to lean on us if you need us for anything. we have family in atlanta and a lot of friends there as well. we're happy to help in any way we can. do you need ANYthing? our thoughts and prayers are coming your way today and in the days to come. we were on ECMO for 7 days and then had repair surgery a few days later. it's a scary, scary place to be as a mommy i know. blessings and peace to you...
