Hippo and Me
Elijah went to CHOC today to do a followup on his blood tests. It turns out that his factor 9 is ok. Thank God. However we also found out that he has a low Von Willabrand type 1. We are told it’s not that serious, but he will need to stay away from anything that will cause him to have any sudden gushing of blood internal or external like tackle football or any contact sport. He will also be wearing some sort of medical tag in order for people to know that he has this condition.
Transferred to CHOC
Right after he was born, he was vomiting and excreting blood. He entered the NICU to drain the blood out of his system. We found out that his insurance was not accepted at the hospital so we were transferred to CHOC
Thank you everyone who has prayed for Elijah and us. We feel that God has really done a miracle to stop the bleeding that occured initially. After transferring, the docters were looking at the charts and numbers and could not believe that it was this same baby. We are very thankful.
