Take a break with these stories:
About the anesthesia piece….I wonder if they take into account the exposure to epidural anesthesia that 90% of babies in the US encounter. Now THAT is scary.

Nobody included my son in on the anesthesia in infancy linked to disabilities. My son was born with a congenital birthmark which by the age of 6 months turned into precancerous cells. It grew very fast and got pretty large. He was put under. Since then he has had the precancerous cells pop up on his body in 5 areas all which he has had to have removed. 4 of them required him to have anesthesia. He gets his body checked out once a year. He is one of the smartest 8 year olds in his class. He is in the 2nd grade and is reading at 5-6th grade level and doing 5 grade math. For those classes he and another child must leave their class room and head to the 5-6 grade classes and participate in math and reading/English Shirley method class. He loves science and math. So no I do not believe that the anesthesia slowed my son down. However it was not until this year that my child caught up emotionally and socially. He was way behind in that department. Long term. Not sure something I will keep an eye on. I know of other children who have had heart surgery hours after birth and they are very smart children, although one of them is socially behind in age but not academically.
I love the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN My sister is a Doctor there. My little cousin had open heart surgery there when he was only hours old. I just think that a larger study should be conducted from around the world and then bring in the statistics.

The Pacing post: “I am so glad we are waiting to you to tell us.” That statement is filled with love.

About Ryan’s posts, does anyone know if they have an older child? In some posts he mentions a brother, but in others it looks like it’s his first pregnancy.
Great blog!

Ryan and Cole have an older son.
- CBB Danielle on
Does anyone know what the diagnosis is for the ‘Littlest buddy’? For those who don’t know he is Ryans step-son, Coles son. It breaks my heart to read that they are so sad. Its sad to know that other parents out there are facing uncertainty.

Thanx Mary! That makes sense, they do have a child, but this is Ryan’s first pregnancy. Hope it’s not anythink too serious:-(
