A Day to Celebrate!
Baby, Child, Health, Parenting, Special Moments January 29th, 2008This is Weidong, my youngest nephew (as of now). He was born with holes in his heart. I did not type an extra ‘s’, yes he was born with THREE HOLES in his heart.
My Sister-in-law was shattered the moment she heard the news a few hours after labour. She has been hoping for a son. She wanted to have 2 children and stop ‘production’. But her 1st 2 kids were daughters and she wanted to have a son very much. So she ‘try’ for the 3rd time.
Luckily God was gracious and granted her wish. Without God’s grace, I cannot imagine how many more tries she will go through. She may just end up like her mother who had 7 daughters before the 8th was a son!!!
Weidong need to go for monthly checkups for his heart condition. Today on his 9th checkup, the doctor did another S$300+ scan for him and announced “He is discharged!” Yeah! He is fully well now.
The 3 holes have closed up completely! No more worries on everyone faces. No more hospital checkups. No more extra expenses to pay for. Yippee! 3 cheers for Weidong! As you read this post, hope you could feel the excitement in us too.
