6.7oz 1 day old, Please pray for my little guy - Pressure Washing Institute

To my Pressure Washing Family,

This past week has been one of the hardest weeks we have ever experienced, With my wife still recovering from the C-section, and me running back, and forth to take care of the little one we already have, and visiting Landon, I am utterly, incomprehensively, exhausted.

Being strong for my wife, and family throughout this whole ordeal has been the most difficult task I have ever had to accomplish. I showed her all the sincere, and kind words that my second family here at *** has expressed, and she was very moved.

I unfortunately am shutting down work, for the next few months to be there for my family. Some of you know that during the holiday season, I hang Christmas lights, and have a very large customer base. This year however I am not going to be doing that.

I have subbed out some work, and made a little money, but I know with the long term effects baby Landon is going have, I am going to need to be home more.

I am incredibly embarrassed in asking this, But I have no other options as of this moment, My local church is taking some donations. and Unfortunately I am going to have to ask my family here at *** for some as well.

The baby was taken off life support yesterday morning, and we took plenty of pictures, and were able to hold him for the first time, Unfortunately his vitals took a turn for the worst last night, and he was re intubated.

He has been Diagnosed, with RDS ( Respitory Distress Syndrome) as well as heart condition called Pulmonary Hypertension Ventrical Disorder. Meaning his heart is not pumping enough blood to the lungs, to transfer the oxygen. He has had 2 blood transfusions thus far.

They will be performing a heart surgery tomorrow to open the vertical leading to his lungs.

The doctors have said that this surgery should help him breath on his own better, and that the recovery should be quicker. Unfortunately he will be in the NICU for at least another month or more it all depends on him.

I am mentally tired, depressed, and to weak to push my self to fulfill and jobs that I had scheduled for the month.

So I am unfortunately asking, for help.

Anything at all will help, I just Need a push. As a business owner, I was not prepared for this downfall, and the cushion we had is slowly deteriorating.

I will be eternally grateful to any donations made to me, and my family.

As Pat mentioned in the last thread, the baby was on a paralytic, and managed to squeeze my wife’s hand. That was an amazing gift from god

Here are some pictures, God bless all of you for all your support. And thank you for your continued prayers.

Again, this is very embarrassing, for me I feel like I have failed as a father and Husband

Thank you everyone, This really is an experience I wish upon no family

[Beth n Rod 1,279]

John, he's in our prayers.

I can't even begin to imagine how difficult this must be on you both. You have not failed as a father or a husband. You are right there with your wife and child, doing what you need to with them. I know this is not much of a consolation tight now, but I am sure they appreciate it. Hang in there, keep praying, and remember that all pastors/priests make hospital calls and there is one on staff too. I'm sure they would come and hold prayers with you.

God bless you and your family.

I have set up a page to make donations if it is easier to use a credit card or paypal. I will make sure all funds are forwarded to John and Family.

Help a fellow pressure wash contractor

[Celeste 341]

We are leaving now to go back to the hospital, in a few hours they will be taking him off of the oscillating (SP) ventilator, and will be extubated. hopefully his airways will now be open, and his blood will pump enough oxygen to his lungs. Hopefully now, he can start his road to recovery, I think hes been through enough.

I am very moved by the amount of support, Prayers, Phone calls, emails and everything in between that my family is receiving.

You all are truly great people. I know we bicker and argue about what sometimes seems like stupid things, But when their is a fellow contractor in need, everyone bands together.

Thank you all so much, My wife is incredibly moved by all of your actions, I will try and get more pictures up tonight, I left my phone at the hospital last night so, if I don't answer, leave a message.

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

God bless you all

I brought my laptop with me to the hospital this evening, and We are about to go in, and watch them extabate him, Wish Landon Luck.

Im so nervous right now, hopefully, the surgery did what was supposed to do. and he will breathe, without his sats falling.

My little man is so black and blue, but he has some serious fight.

We are about to go in, just wanted to say thank you again for the support, you all are god sent.

John just looking at that little guy he looks like a fighter. He's going to be some man one day you can just see it. Makes me wish I had more kids because all of it is rewarding.

Godspeed on his recovery.

From the doctors that deliver, To the nurses that take care.

To the transport team that’s waiting when urgency rings the bell.

From specialists, to surgeons. And the neonatal team, it takes a special group of people to make things work the way they should be.

As a result a new life is born, healthy and stable a new future can now take its course.

Without the work of these very special people, Our future would diminish and life would have no means. Thank you to those who stood by my side, with out you I’d never experience life.

As you can see from the short poem I wrote, The surgery was a success and he is now on the green road to recovery, It still is going to take a while, but at least now I know In a few months time, I will be changing poop, and getting urinated on. I never thought I'd think that would be a good thing, but its life in your arms, when you almost lost it.

He is still intubated, Because his vitals could not handle such rapid breathing, but the really cool thing is, it is a regulated ventilator, it breathes good breath every 5 seconds, and he breathes the ones in between, essentially giving him time to strengthen and breath completely on his own.

It is still going to be some time, but now I know Im not going to lose him.

the doctors said that the more he knows we are there, and the more he feels our touch, recovery is always certainly much quicker. So from now till the day he is discharged I will be holding his little hand, and telling him all about the family business, and the great second family that help support him into this world.

Just wanted to update you all, its almost 4:00am here, and I am so emotional with joy. The donations have been amazing so far, and I know more is coming, You all are the most amazing group of people I have ever met

God Bless all of you

Kiss your Kids, Hug your Wife, and Cherish your life!!

Wow my heart,thoughts and prayers are with you John this brought tears to my eyes. Always put yourself in Gods hands and he will take care of the rest...everything is for a reason always look at the positives of it all. Also as a father myself i can tell you, you are doing exactly what a father with love in his heart would do....not a selfish bone in your body,a perfect example of a loving father that puts family first!!

I am sure i speak for us all here, we all love you and your family brother and we will all say our prayers and God will see that your family is taken care of.
