During that stay he was given two quilts that were donated to the hospital along with books and so many volunteers who read to him at the hospital, so I wanted to be able to give back to those who had helped us when we were going through a rough time.
I'm so sorry to hear about your son. Is he doing better now?
Yes, he is doing much better now, went from throwing up everything to being a healthy (but small) crazy kid, he has some food restrictions and are battling with wieght but other than that he is the best thing ever! I am so sorry to hear about your struggles, it is good to have friends on here though that we can all share these things with! Thanks for starting this thread it was such a wonderfull way for us to get to know eachother a little more! I know I feel like I have found so many new friends here, even though I am so new, everyone is just so welcoming and helpfull and friendly!
