Life is "great " with my lil man!!!

NO news is good news!!! It has been a while since I have updated, but this is a good thing. At the begining of the year it looked like this was gonna be a year full of hospitalizations and surgeries, But GOD answered our prayers and has given us an amazing last few months. Billy was suppose to have surgery on his right wrist and have his left wrist and hand serial casted. We had to put this off due to some GI problems he was having. Billy's feeding tube became too little and the GI doctor decided it was time to change it (it lasted 5 years) he was afraid to do it in his office due to the fact he was afraid Billy's stomach would shift. He decided to do it in the hospital under anesthesia and scope just in case he needed to go to surgery. That morning we went to the hospital anticipating surgery and all the emotions that your child having surgery bring with it. We arrived at the hospital an 6am and to our surprise we were on our way home 5 hours later with a shiny new button.... Billy did wonderful, the only complication he had was that his button had grown to the lining of his stomach and it took a little force to get it out, but his stomach remained in place and a new button was put in with no problems., he was a little sore and out of it for a few days, but over all he did "AMAZING".
For now we have decided to put his wrist surgery off until it is an absolute "have to". I am so tired of watching my lil man endure soooo much.....it is time for a break!!!!
Billy has done so much in the last few months in school and has even started playing base ball (challenger). Playing base ball is something I never thought I would get to see my boy do, but he is doing it and loving it. I fight back the tears every time I see him in his uniform on that field and hitting the ball. Of course he has help..... Brittany has been being his buddy except for last night Steve and I took turns being buddies. This baseball team is the most amazing thing you will ever see....... Every one should take the time to watch a Challenger base ball game, its really good for the heart. Special needs kiddos are the most perfect kids...they are always all about being happy and making every one around them happy.I am so thankful that God has blessed me with this knowledge and the opportunity to be part of so much perfection. I have always said and believe with every thing in me that a special needs person is the closest you will get to God on earth!!!! I just wish people in our society would open there eyes and see what I see and except my child for the perfect lil man he is instead of acting like he is freak or contagious.
