We have created this blog to help keep all of our family and friends updated on Pearson's progress as he begins to take his first baby steps in life. As most of you know, Pearson has a birth defect known as CDH and will have to overcome many challenges over the next several months. We thank you for visiting our blog and encourage you to leave comments as often as you would like. We look forward to hearing from you!

GREAT NEWS!!!!!!
Once again our little guy has proven to be a FIGHTER!!!!!! We just spoke with Dr. Kays and he has decided to hold off on surgery. In the last 24 hours Pearson has made more progress than he has the whole time. Dr. Kays takes an x-ray everyday of his chest, and today's x-ray showed that his lungs have made some improvement, which he has not seen since he was born. His oxygen levels were also the highest they have been, which is something else they look at everyday. He will reevaluate Pearson everyday to decide when the time is right for surgery. We are praying that he will continue to make progress, so that Dr. Kays will not have to do surgery until he is off ECMO. God has once again answered our prayers and we know this would not be possible without all the prayers you all have sent up for him. We thank you from the bottom of our heart. We are so thankful for this wonderful day God has given us.
