CJK IS HOME!!!!! Praise The Lord!

It is one of the miracles of life to me
that someone can be so sick one day
that you fear for them
and the next day they are sent home.

We are so very, very grateful
to EVERYONE that prayed for our boyo.
A special THANKS  to 
Lauren from  Simply LKJ 
for responding to God's nudge to contact us
AND 
THANK YOU to Kristin 
for writing about the trial her little Grayson 
went through with Kawasaski Disease
Without this information we don't know what 
would have happened to CJK before they 
figured out what was wrong with him.
Praise God!
He is not able to walk yet so give us one more
prayer that he "finds his feet" soon.
Otherwise-
Today he is sitting up and eating some of
Nana's Spaghetti!
Oh- Look!
Hellloooooooooo- Your MOUTH is to your right!
I really don't think he is MY blood relation
because I can ALWAYS find my mouth!

ps-Is that the cutest brown-eyed baby boy
you've ever seen?  
No need to answer if you have one of your own!

What a relief! There is nothing worse than when your kids (and grandkids)are sick...it's a terribly helpless feeling. He looks great! :)

Ricki Treleaven said...

He's adorable with his Big Brown Eyes!!! Wow, what a blessing that he's home in time for Christmas fun. I bet Santa's working overtime for him! ;P

I'll pray for his little walking, bless him!

Musings from Kim K. said...

Sneaking blogs during a work meeting and this post TOTALLY made my day! I'm doing the snoopy-dance-of-joy for your family and sweet little grandson. Continued prayers for his ongoing recovery.

Pam Kessler said...

What no Starbucks for him? He looks soooo good! It's amazing what a few days of the right medicine can do! Now get back to watching Spongebob, because you know there's something like 200 episodes of Spongebob, right? You'll be singing his theme song in your sleep.

Penny @ Penny's Vintage Home said...

Yes he is the cutest little brown eyed boy I've every seen! I'm so happy that he is home with his Nana....hugs, Penny

Kathy@ Gone North said...

Little Blue Mouse said...

I don't know why but I haven't been able to comment on blogs for the past few days.
I'm not religious but I have been thinking of your grandson and wishing him well. I'm so glad to hear he's on the mend and I'm sure he'll soon be back on his feet.

Dayle ~ A Collection of Days said...

So happy to hear this good news! Thankful to God for answering as we desired. I believe baby boy will continue to improve.

Karen said...

Hallelujah! He'll running around and into everything before you know it.

bj said...

O, Diana...ALL the praise goes to our Heavenly Father. HE is sooo good....all the time.

So thankful he is doing well. We will continue prayers for feet...and for getting his strength back. He looks weak in your photo.Maybe he just ran out of juice and couldn't get that spoon to his little mouth. :)

So so thankful, Nana.

Chatty Crone said...

We are thrilled that this darling is home in the bosom of his family. He'll find his mouth and his feet soon I am sure. I hope that everyone gets some naps over the next few days.

Brenda Pruitt said...

I think this story, this miracle story, has gone round and round the blogosphere. Just goes to show you what a tight knit and loving bunch we are, doesn't it. I am SO happy for you all. And yes, he is an adorably sweet and hopefully soon very healthy little boy!

Japolina said...

This is the best post ever! So glad he's home. It's always amazing how fast kids rebound from being sick. My son had hernia surgery at age 3 and was literally jumping on the bed within hours. G-d forbid a husband had such a surgery. They would be in bed for a week complaining!!!

Enjoy that cute face

Unknown said...

So glad your little guy is doing better. My son's classmate had the same scare 3 years ago but is doing just fine today. It is so awesome someone in the blog world was able to reach out and get the proper diagnosis. it's a tough one!

Be sure to get your little guy on a reputable probiotic to help his gut flora following the heavy duty antibiotic. So essential for development since our guts are connected to our brains.

You should also check out Juice Plus+ which is whole food nutrition from a variety of 26 vine-ripened fruits and veggies that provide so many antioxidants that will help him continue to recover.
It is in capsules (it could be sprinkled in a drink) or chewables.
You can visit www.kpiccola.juiceplus.com or call me at 973-769-2373. I'd love to share more information with you.

Happy holidays,
Kristen Piccola
