View Full Version : Twin in jeopardy
Blink 08-04-2005, 12:21 PM I know that many of you have been keeping up to date with the progress of Mo & Jazz (see my signature). Just wanted to let you know that Jazz took a turn for the worse overnight. His position is extremely precarious, and the outcome very uncertain.
I'm off to the hospital shortly.
I'm so sorry to hear your news Blink, my thoughts and prayers are with you all at this terrible time....

karenh 08-04-2005, 04:08 PM Blink - I am so sorry to hear this news.
I haven't been online much generally and so haven't been following progress lately. This is a bit of a blow as the last I read, things were looking positive.
God, it just goes on and on for you all. I really hope that things start to turn for the brighter soon.

Ohh Blink, I don't know what to say. You've all been through so much, and somehow or other come out the other end with a smile and a kind word.
I hope Jazz pulls through this whether via miracles or medical marvels.
My thoughts are with you.
kookycat 09-04-2005, 02:27 PM sorry to hear that blink, hope everything turns out just gravy!!
survivorfan 10-04-2005, 10:13 AM Any further news Blink?
Cheekychops 10-04-2005, 10:18 AM Thoughts and prayers with you and your family Blink
There was an update on James condition on Blinks site (http://ellis.dyndns.biz/rob/) yesterday SF.
Blink 10-04-2005, 04:33 PM Hi folks. Well there's not a lot more to report. I will post an update on my website a bit later on today. We've spent a lot of time with James, nearly lost him Friday; he pulled through yesterday and is continuing to pull through.
He contracted an enterobacter infection (Google it if you like - it's nasty), which resulted in ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome). He's still needing a lot of assistance with his breathing, but he's still alive.
I can't believe how many serious blips that boy has had in 7 months. Please God let it be the last!
And all this happened when he was just about to be transferred back to Chester. Groan. It is so hard having him 30 miles away (and seriously ill). It is also really horrible visiting him, and him being far too ill for a cuddle. :(
Bella 10-04-2005, 04:35 PM Aww, Blink you are all really going through the mill. He is a wee fighter though, hopefully as you say this will be the last. Take care :hug:
Patsy 10-04-2005, 04:37 PM You're both very strong Blink. I don't know how you're doing it, but keep going.
Fee For All 10-04-2005, 04:48 PM What a splendid wee chap - a real fighter!
He must know how much support and love he is getting, despite the 30 miles.
I am glad the news is a little better Blink :hug:
That's good news blink. Whatever you and Mrs Blink are doing - keep it up - believe you will bring him home big and strong.
secrets 10-04-2005, 06:09 PM James is a stayer Blink, as long as you are there he will pull through.
All the best.:)
Cheekychops 10-04-2005, 06:12 PM What a little fighter he is will keep praying for him and the family.
Can't imagine what it must be like having to face this time and time again.
Good luck. My thoughts are with you all.
Pandora 11-04-2005, 03:43 PM Can't imagine what it must be like having to face this time and time again.
Good luck. My thoughts are with you all. Same here, Blink. xxx
tigger 11-04-2005, 06:09 PM Sending prayers and thoughts and hugs.
Blink, I just cannot imagine what you and Mrs Blink are going through, I really can't. The pair of you must be run ragged in mind and body - the boys are in their own way getting on with it, and with the love and support they are getting from both yourselves, the hospital staff and close family and friends - I am sure that one way or another they will work through things.
James, although unconcious through all of this is in the very best place and Morgan - the wee wriggler seems to be over the latest worst, albeit his feeding is a problem.
This hug I am sending you can give yourselves - it is the nearest to an email hug I can get, you just wrap your arms over one another so left hand is on the right shoulder and vice versa with the other hand and squeeze hard, you so both deserve much much more - and my thoughts, email hugs and prayers are still with you and will remain there for a long long time.
Andrea 11-04-2005, 08:22 PM Blink, I would also like to send all your family a big e-mail hug just like Flips.
You have been through so much in the last year and still going through it.
My thoughts, prayers and hugs are winging their way to your family right this minute and always.
My thoughts are with you and your family Blink.
I'm a twin myself and me and my brother were very premature and in hospital for months after our births.
Every year on our birthday we hear once again the events of our first year.
Still as fresh in my parents' minds
I hope that in years to come you'll be telling your boys of their amazing fight for life.
:hug: For you and your family Blink :hug:
Praying and thinking of you all.
Blink, I have read the latest update and my heart is sad, but remaining strong and positive for you all. The outlook is not one that anyone wants to hear, and everyone, absolutely everyone is and will be thinking of you and praying for you all.
Prayers and thoughts are also with the staff caring for James and hope against hope that they, with the help of God and James himself that the treament works.
You know those email hugs?? Well put your face to the screen and I am sending huge hugs and kisses for you all.
I have to pop to Church later to fill in the wedding register for an up and coming wedding - and in the peace and solitude of our Church, I shall speak out loud to God and tell him you need his help just a little more than normal at this time.
Bella 12-04-2005, 11:34 AM Blink, hope that we hear good news today. My thoughts are with you. :hug:
karenh 12-04-2005, 11:48 AM Blink - I've just read the latest entry posted yesterday. I'll be praying hard.
Minklemar 12-04-2005, 12:05 PM Blink - I've just read the latest entry posted yesterday. I'll be praying hard.
Same goes for me too....
Blink 13-04-2005, 09:31 AM Yesterday we had a completely honest conversation with the consultant in charge of intensive care. His view was that he saw every reason to continue with Jazz's treatment, and no reason to talk about switching equipment off as yet. He said that he had seen children sicker than James recover. (After all, with James, it is only his lungs that are failing - all his other major organs are working okay.)
This is horrible suspense to be in though. We are waiting, hoping that something absolutely awful won't happen. (cf Chinese water torture...?) If we emerge from this experience sane, that in itself will be a profound miracle. :bored:
My prayers are yours, friend. Hold on. God bless.
Patsy 13-04-2005, 09:37 AM Any encouraging news is fantastic, Blink. Hang on in there.
Praying for a miracle for your little family, Blink :hug:
Cheekychops 13-04-2005, 10:33 AM Thoughts and prayers with you and your family Blink. Keeping everything crossed for James.
Fee For All 13-04-2005, 10:53 AM Another small step forward! Fingers crossed for the next, and the ones after.
I just wish I could parcel up a bundle of 'strength reserves' for you and Mrs Blink.
:hug:
Andrea 13-04-2005, 12:53 PM Blink I was so scared to go onto your website today, but eventually getting there,saw that James has improved slighty.
You've got a damned good little fighter there.
Prayers for you being said constantly.
Nothing more to add to what the others have said before me Blink darling!
Love and hope to you all :hug:
Blink 16-04-2005, 09:16 PM Things are looking a little better, folks. I won't bog you down with detail here - you're welcome to check the website. Just wanted to let you know that, although he's still in intensive care, Jazz is making slow but steady progress.
karenh 16-04-2005, 09:18 PM That's fabulous news Blink. James is turning out to be a real survivor, bless his little heart.
I'll check out the website now.
Marmoset 16-04-2005, 09:34 PM My very best and heartfelt wishes for a speedy recovery for little Jazz.
And big hugs for you all oxoxoxox
