that darn pyloris!




Oh wow! Does this little guy still have battle after battle to conquer with the nurses and doctors and mommy and daddy to be his fellow soldiers! They have stopped pulling stuff out of his stomach for a day to see what would happen, and his stomach became really bloated which means NOTHING is getting out of it anymore including the air that he sucks in. Poor little guy! Can you even imagine having to go through this yourself?! Ugh! So they did another ultrasound this afternoon, and his doctor requested a very specific radiologist to do it! They have found that the problem is in his pyloris. It is between the stomach and small intestines connecting the two. You know I took a full year of Anatomy and Physiology in college and I could not have told you where the pyloris is! Anyways. The now know the problem area which is great they jsut have to figure out the cause! Good luck doctors! I think we all need to begin to direct our prayers to not only little Seth and family but to those who care for him and need to figure out what is wrong and then how to fix it! Oh the poor little fella! They have put him on some antibiotics to see if they may help some. His white blood cells were a bit high. Keep on fighting little Seth! Be patient! Things will work out! The docs WILL figure it all out and will figure how to fix you so that you can go home and be with mommy and daddy ASAP! Not to mention your incredibly awesome brother and sister who are dying to play with you! Love you little Seth! Love you Jamie and Drew! You are all in our prayers!

  1. At least the doctors are pinpointing the issues so they can fix it. My prayers are ABSOLUTELY with the doctors and the Miller family!

  2. You know it sounds an awful lot like what happened with my sister. I really hope Seth's doctors are successful with finding the cause and then finding a solution. Are they able to call in more experienced experts from other places? I'm guessing that Seth can't travel. My sister had 6 surgeries in 6 months, some necessary, and then some caused from reactions to other surgeries. She finally was transported to a hospital with some of the best specialists in the world. They were able to pin point everything and fix the problems. Of course there were multiple things. If you do have the time, please always ask for a second opinion, especially when it comes to surgeries! Okay, so I think I'm being super over paranoid for you! You're in our prayers!!!
