Donations

I wanted to extend my thanks to all those who have helped us over the last three months. Had it not been for your generosity, we would not have survived. And most importantly, we would not have been able to be by Biggun's side. There are no words that can express how much it means to me that I was given that opportunity.

Our situation is not nearly as dire as it was. We still take it day by day and manage our money very carefully. Hike for Heroes recently assisted us by putting $2000 directly towards bills we owed, which was a huge relief for us.

If you are still interested in helping or donating, we most definitely need items to gear up for Biggun coming home. There are certain things we still need such as a baby swing, bouncer, walker, bottles, diapers, wipes, and any/all sorts of baby clothes. He is currently wearing 0-3 months.

Donations can still be done the same way - You can go to www.paypal.com and donate to the email rachelxkeslar@gmail.com. You can also go to any CHASE bank and put in a deposit to Joshua Daniel Keslar. Any questions you might have can be sent to the rachelxkeslar@gmail.com email address.

Again, thank you for all your support. You kept us alive and by our baby's side. I cannot thank you enough for that.

IV infiltrate

Biggun has had an off day, starting out at 68% oxygen and he is getting another head ultrasound tomorrow so that the doctor can follow up with us on Friday. The doctors do two weeks on, and his current doctor finishes her two weeks and wants to ensure she leaves us with a good cover of his condition and the last two weeks.

He also had an IV infiltrate during a plasma transfusion and they didn't realize it because of the tape so the plasma went into his arm for awhile before they realized what was going on. But when the nurse went to take the tape off to look at it, it pulled his skin off. The IV location can't be reutilized so they had to use one in his head.
We are heading back to the hospital just to check up on him, but just wanted to write a quick update.

Much love,
Rachel and Joshua

  2. What a precious angel! You don't know me. I am a friend of Ben Friberg's. He sent out a prayer request on Facebook for you and your baby boy. I am so sorry for what you are going through right now, and just know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your baby right now. I can't imagine going through what you are right now. I just had my son in November and always had a fear of going into labor early. Stay strong and trust in God! He looks like a true fighter!~Jessica Sharpe
