Shortly after 5pm tonight Ryan and I got a phone call from the hospital to tell us Landon has Hirschsprung's Disease. A group of surgeons are going to get together in the morning and decide on which surgery method is best for him. This is one of the better things that could be wrong with him. We are still praying for him all of the time. They also still don't know if he has Cystic Fibrosis but should know in a week or so. It is not that common for a baby to have both but it is not unheard of either.
We went to the hospital tonight to see Landon. He was sun bathing when we got there because he has a little bit of jaundice. We were able to hold him tonight which was great. We each had 15 minutes to rock him and talk to him. He slept most of the time and seemed pretty peaceful. He also had two small poops today! Yeah!! They changed his IV to a more long term IV in the middle of his arm which is more comfortable for him. The tube that is down his nose into his stomach is not retrieving much which is also a good sign. Right now we ask for as many prayers as possible for little Landon and thank you for all of you who have been praying for him.

Wow, Brooke! Your story has me in tears. Little Landon is in my prayers. He already sounds like a fighter though. I hope you and Ryan are able to get some amount of sleep. It sounds like it's going to be a rocky couple weeks ahead. By the way, the pics are amazing. He both look so happy. They are beautiful.
