Wednesday 4th Update


If he isn't being held, he loves to lounge in his boppy or sleep in his bouncy seat!



Just hanging out!



This picture of Will was taken earlier this afternoon. He was actually snoring!!
I think his trach may be getting a little small. You can hear his voice through it sometimes.





I just talked to Will's nurse, Mindy, to get an update. She said that he's doing good tonight. She was able to wean him some on his dopamine and that he hasn't required any extra sedation. That's my boy! Keep it up Will!

    I am a co-worker of Brad Arrington. He has shared Will's story with us all here at Dell. I just wanted to say that I will keep you all in my prayers.
    I will also leave a quote from a great inspiration in my life Lance Armstrong.
    Just remember God has a reason for everything but you have to BELIEVE!!! GOD BLESS!!

    "I believed in belief, for its own shining sake. To believe in the face of utter hopelessness, every article of evidence to the contrary, to ignore apparent catastrophe-what other choice was there? We do it every day, I realized. We are so much stronger than we imagine, and belief is one of the most valiant and long-lived human characteristics. To believe, when all along we humans know that nothing can cure the briefness of this life, that there is no remedy for our basic mortality, that is a form of bravery." "To continue believing in yourself, believing in the doctors, believing in the treatment, believing in whatever I chose to believe in, that was the most important thing, I decided. It had to be." "Without belief, we would be left with nothing but an overwhelming doom, every single day. And it will beat you. I didn't fully see, until the cancer, how we fight every day against the creeping negatives of the world, how we struggle daily against the slow lapping of cynicism. Dispiritedness and disappointment, these are the real perils of life, not some sudden illness or cataclysmic millennium doomsday. I knew now why people fear cancer: because it is a slow and inevitable death, it is the very definition of cynicism and loss of spirit... So, I believed." -- Lance Armstrong

    I have been praying for him and will continue to do so. He was lifted up at my church last night.

    I've been praying for your darling son since before he was born and will continue to do so. He was certainly named appropriately... Will seems to have such a will to live!!! He constantly rallies! How
    such a sick little baby can endure what he has endured is the testament to another will: the Will of God. Please know that I will continue to pray for him.

    love,
