Braxton's Story

My husband was actually over seas in Afghanistan, when I began to have some complications at only 31 wks. I thought maybe just being under stress or just something emotional with me, was causing this. I had mentioned to mydoctor I was having problems, and he scheduled an ultra sound and everything looked fine. Two days later, I had my beautiful son Braxton. He weighed 4 lbs and 9 oz. I thought he was fine, he cried when he was born, but then he just stopped. He died in the delivery room 3 times, and when they finally had him stable, they flew him to Cook Children's Hospital. He dropped down to 3 lbs and 11 oz, and was there for 3 wks.

He fought against all the odds, and now today, he is a happy smart 13 month old little boy. He weights 26 lbs now, and is walking, and talking, and doing everything that the doctors said he probably wouldn't do. He truly is my miracle baby, but I have always called him my muscle man..
