Samuel was born with ACC, Hirschsprung's Disease, 2 VSDs, Kidney Reflux,
hypospadious, and gastoric volvulus (twisted stomach). He had a pull
through surgery to correct the Hirschsprung's disease on February 7, 2005.
He had a surgery to correct the gastoric volvulus on March 21, 2005. He had
surgery to correct the Hypospadious on January 3, 2006. Fortunately, his
kidney reflux healed on its own. Samuel will soon be evaluated at the
Children's Hospital feeding clinic to help find the reason for persistant
gagging on different textured food. Developmentally, he is still unable to
roll over completely and is still unable to sit up unassisted.
Samuel is a very happy boy and is always smiling and laughing. He is such a
joy to be around. We are so blessed to have him.
