Meet Jayden Avery



Okay this Is Jayden Avery, he is who I call "My Buddy". Jayden was born he weighed just 9 lbs 5 oz. When he was 6 wks old he weighted 8lbs 1 oz. After many unanwsered doctors visits I took Jay to a walk in clinic, where i felt alot better with his dignosis. He has Pyloric Stenosis.

What Is Pyloric Stenosis? You Say.......
Pyloric stenosis is a narrowing of the pylorus, the lower part of the stomach through which food and other stomach contents pass to enter the small intestine. When an infant has pyloric stenosis, the muscles in the pylorus have become enlarged to the point where food is prevented from emptying out of the stomach.

So in my opinion my kids so called doctor misdiagnosed my son and he almost died. Now I know my son had a medical problem but in my hearts of hearts I know that , that doctor didn't do the the best he could to help my son. I do however what to give kudos to the Nurse Practitioner, Kelley Sharp. She took the time to listen to me and care for my son. I owe her everything. I know it's not my place to judge and that it's the Lords job but I will never let my children go back to that that doctor. I trust a Nurse before I would trust that doctor again. Needless to say 48 hours later my son had his surgery and is alot better.

But now Jayden is 3 years old going on 4. He is a ladies man, He has gotten my grandmother eating out of the palm of his hand. Which my grandmother was with me during the whole pyloric thing. She watch as he cryed for me when they took 2 hours just to put an iv in him, but not one tear fell from his checks. Jayden suprizes me everyday with something new and cute. He makes me laugh.He is a strong little man. He is my buddy.
