All For Ashlee

In June 2007 Ashlee was born with a TE Fistula, Imperforate Anus, and Cloacal Anomaly. The day after she was born she had surgery to repair the TE Fistula. She stayed in the NICU for 11 days and then finally went home. About a month later she had her esophagus dilated, a few weeks later she got a UTI and was in the hospital for nearly 2 weeks and finished her 18 day stay in the hospital with a colostomy. She has been doing pretty well since then. She had her esophagus dilated again in December. In May Ashlee got a DOC Band which she had for 3 1/2 months. We traveled to Ohio in August for Ashlee's Rectal Pull-Thru {and much more}, where we also found out that she has Tethered Cord. In a couple of weeks, she will be having the surgery to un-tether her spinal cord. All thru Ashlee's short life, she has been thru so much and yet has still managed to be one of the happiest babies in the whole world. She brings so much love and hope to her family and all who know her or get a chance to see her smile have fallen in love with her. I am Ashlee's lucky mom. {All proceeds go towards Ashlee's medical bills, treatments, and surgeries.}

Hi,
I have been vaguely aware of your situation through Angie's blog and know that you have had a lot going on with Ashlee. I don't know what she still has going on, but my son had a TE with repair and several other "gut" issues. I just wanted to let you know of a procedure called an aortopexy that my son is having done tomorrow that should help with his tracheomalacia and "dying spells" aka severe apnea. I hope that Ashlee doesn't have those too, but I wanted to let you know about the procedure in case you were having concerns and hadn't been given any answers. Also, I don't know if you have applied for, but the state does have a secondary type of "insurance" that is for long-term medical help.

Just passing on info, because I know how stressful having a sick baby is, especially when specialists give up and say that your kid is the hardest they've seen.

Like I said, don't know if any of this applies or is helpful.
