    My son had the same trouble at birth but had no lingering troubles. Good luck to your son. This lens has been blessed by a Squid Angel.

    Your son has the same birthday as me (different year). Looks like he's had a difficult struggle. Thanks for sharing.

    A beautiful tribute to a remarkable young man. You have every right to be proud, Tam. I'm looking forward to reading more of your lenses...you're the kind of lensmaster that makes Squidoo such a special place.

    What a wonder woman you are, Tam. I am inspired and moved by this story. Jon has very reason to be filled with pride and so do you. God Bless You Both!

    Beautiful. I do understand, my son is a brain cancer survivor. We had good years before that - and we have good times now, they're just different good times. Love and good luck to your family.

    Wonderful story and another proof that we never should give up! We're trusted by our kids, these little helpless creatures to do our best with them. To protect them and encourage thir development to best of out abilities. You're great mother! Never gave up on him. No matter what doctors said. You knew better. And this probably saved his life! Blessed by an Angel!
