Guest guest Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 Hi Everyone, I got a call this afternoon from Niki asking me to post to the list to let everyone know that she will be away because her son, RJ, who I believe is around 8 weeks old now, is in the hospital. Niki took RJ in to have his circumcision done and they could not stop the bleeding. He was put in the hospital where they were finally able to stop the bleeding but not until the little guy had lost around 6 ounces of blood. I'm not sure how much blood infants have, but 6 ounces sure sounds like alot to me. Right now the docs think that RJ may suffer from hemophilia or some other blood problem (I can't remember what Niki called it) so they are running some tests. I'm asking everyone here to please pray to whatever higher being that you hold dear and send positive vibes to little RJ that the docs find out what is wrong with him and fix him up real soon so he can go home and be with his family. I'm asking for those same prayers and positive vibes for Niki, RJ's daddy, and the whole family so they can stay strong for little RJ. I'm going to try to check in with Niki this evening to see if I can get an update on RJ to share with everyone. Niki is a great lady, she took the time to privately email me and phone me when I was going through all the difficulty trying to find out if I could breastfeed while on medication. She shared with me her personal experience with these issues and how she got through it and definitely was an angel in my life when I was struggling. Everyone here is wonderful and I'm sure with all of us praying hard for little RJ he will be fine ASAP! Thanks guys! Axelrod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
