Current Updates --> Jayden & Joshua's Journey

MESSAGE TO US FROM A FRIEND: "At 5 am on Feb 1, 2013, Violeta's water broke and was rushed to the hospital as she was only 25 weeks along with Jayden and Josh. She was rushed for an emergency c-section and Jayden and Josh were born. They are currently in need of lots of prayers. Although Josh is doing a little better than Jayden, both need all the prayers they can get to pull through and become strong little boys!!

As of 02/05/13 - Baby Jayden is still in critical condition, please pray extra hard for him, the head ultrasound they did on him showed that the hemorrhage reached a part of his brain. The doctor gave family the worst case scenario. Baby Joshua is stable but has low blood pressure at times please pray for him as well. Doctor gave the family a positive outcome for Josh. Jayden is 1 lb 9 oz, Josh is 1 lb 7 oz."

2/9/13 UPDATE: "Please everyone pray really hard, we just got the worst news ever :( I am devastated and heartbroken, Jayden has a grade 4 hemorrhage on his right side of the brain and a grade 3 or 4 on his left side... Doctor said that the best thing to do as parents is to pull the plug on him. I refuse to let him go."

2/17/13 UPDATE: the doctor had to drain out excess
liquid from Jayden's head tonight cause he had a lot of pressure in his brain cause of the hemorrhage. Jayden kept going into desat all day cause of the pressure in his head."

5/15/13 UPDATE - "We are heartbroken. Baby Jayden passed away in my arms this morning."

5/25/13 UPDATE - "Joshua is finally home. This is bittersweet because we miss Jayden so much. Joshua left the hospital weighing 7 lbs exactly and on his apnea monitor."

Quoting from National Geographic's "Your Brain A User's Guide 100 Things you never knew"
"...it's a paradox that the organ that lets you understand the world understands so little about itself."
Remember, the brain is an incredible and unpredictable organ. It's known for doing amazing things. So, your brain injured child may do amazing things!

Mothers know their children the best!

We believe in this!
