Twenty-Two Months

Mr. Man continues to do quite well after surgery. He gets stronger each and every day and we are pleased with his recovery. Noah's tummy is still quite sensitive...although he has not vomited in several days due to the fact that we feed him smaller amounts more frequently. The drooling, while starting to subside, is still quite apparent. Every time I change his bib, which happens about ten times a day, I call him Moist Boy. Noah gets quite a kick out of his new nickname.

Noah's current stats:

Weight: 31 pounds
Height: 33 1/2 inches

Don't those smiles just crack you up?!?

The Story

Our son, Noah Stone Jackson, was born with a very rare genetic disorder called Fraser syndrome. Among his many challenges are one “hidden eye”, a narrow trachea (which required him to have a tracheotomy), an imperforate anus (which required a colostomy), difficulty swallowing (which required a G-Tube for feedings), the fusing of his vocal chords (which means he may never speak), and club feet (which are being corrected with braces). Our family is on an amazing journey together. We are learning to walk along this path that God has planned for us, trusting in His infinite love and wisdom. We are taking each day (or each moment) as it comes and relying on each other, our friends and family, and our God for strength. We have a long road ahead of us filled with several more surgeries, lots of recovery, countless hours of therapy, and many trips to specialists around the state. Every day brings us challenges but they pale in comparison to the smiles and cuddles from our little man. Noah is our son, a true gift from God, and we cannot wait to see where this adventure leads.
