Hello All,
We have completed the surgery on the tongue today about 1:30 PM. Hayden seems to be doing well at this point. Dr. Sun who did the closing of the brain tumor removal also did the surgery today. While he was doing surgery today he looked at the incision from the previous surgery in Hayden's mouth and saw that it still is not healing like it should because of the feeding tube rubbing on the back of throat and also he said Hayden needed more nourishment for healing and he has had to be on steroids for swelling of tongue which is not helping the situation. So we will be having another surgery for a feeding tube on Wed. This one will be put in tummy. So needless to say we are very concerned about now having a trach and g tube for feeding. Hayden has been a superman thru all of this so far but every time the door opens to his room he tenses up big time. I am sending some more prayer requests:
1)Tongue will heal with no problems.
2)Mom and Dad, Hayden will get some rest.
3)Surgery for feeding tube will go well with no problems
4)Direction for future surgery of total removal and stablelization for Drs and Mom and Dad.
Some of you have had problems posting and I hope this will go through so you will know what is going on with us here in Little Rock. I'm sorry for the problem with the site. Hope this will fix problem. Thanks for all the prayers and cards and financial support. Please continue with your comments we love reading them because they make us feel like you're here with us giving special hugs. So thanks again......
Still praising Him,
Mimi

Hi Mimi and family. Good to hear from you. I know all of you must have so much frustration and uneasiness. It's so difficult to know what to say, but I do want you to know that we are all praying for you. I would like to find some magical words to make you feel better, but I know that the only way that will happen is to see that precious little one healed and at home. I do believe that is going to happen in HIS time. Remember "GOD is good all the time". We love you.
I wish we could be there to help you all. I am praying for the things you have ask for and I know that God will hear our prayers. It is so hard to watch our little ones go through pain and fear and not be able to fix it. I pray that God will give you a peace and rest that only He can give you. Love, Pam W.
Just wanted to tell you that I'm thinking about y'all and keeping you in my prayers....
I'm taking things one day at a time here. God Bless.

Continue to lean on God and HE will bring you all through this. Love, Carol & Ashley

It was good to talk to you yesterday. Thanks for the update on Hayden's surgery. It just breaks my heart to read what Hayden is having to go through as I know it does yours.
Thanks again for the specific prayers.
Hope Mason slept good last night.
Keep your spirits up.
Love, hugs & kisses.

We are praying for Hayden and the entire family. Our prayer cell and Sunday Schoolo class at First Baptist in Columbia, TN are aware of little Hayden.
Love,
Roy and Pat Thompson
Dear David & Christy,
My heart is breaking for Hayden - I can only imagine what you both must be feeling. Please know that prayers are constantly going up for you all and that you are loved and missed very much. I know that you both are overwhelmed with exhaustion, fear and frustration -you are wonderful parents and I know Hayden loves you very much. He will one day understand and appreciate the profound love that a parent has for their child that enables them to endure the sleepless nights, lack of appetite and all the other hardships necessary to be there with wide open arms and hearts for their children. We will continue to pray and send our love to Hayden.
Paul, Lauren & Kayla
