Wow I barely know what to say Rob.
There's nothing worse then when it's a problem with your children.
My thoughts are going out to you and Belinda.
Fingers are crossed that everything works out ok!

Rob - I echo the same as the others. As a father, I can't imagine the agony you are feeling. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Rob, my wife and I wish you and your family the best. I can only imagine how tough this must be on you.

Our thoughts are with you...
Mike

Rob my wife and I are praying for you right now. I can only imagine the heartache being a dad too. My little girl is a treasure and my brain just shuts down trying to comprehend. Please keep us posted it looks like you have a lot of prayer cover here.

Rob,

Best wishes to you and your wife and son - there are obviously lots of prayers and good thoughts going out to you all.

Keep the faith that things will all turn out well - children are remarkably strong and resilient, even in dealing with some very tough illnesses.

Jbert.

OK Rob

I have walked in your shoes. Casey went code blue twice and they brought him back to life. I ve waited in the waiting room for 8 surgerys by the time he was 6.

Here is what I can tell you. Do not see ghosts..... deal with the present and dont project anything that isnt positive. You are his advocate and keep an eye on things. You have to be strong as hard as it is.......

Now all I can do is offer to answer any questions that arise out of this via pm. I can also offer the services of Mattel Childrens Hospital at UCLA. I am once again on the board of directors there. I was the founding member and have donated my time to them for 14 years 8 as a board member. THe Ball family has huge juice there and it is yours. If your doctors want to run some film or lab stuf by the guys there or if the need arises I can arrange for him to come here. I sure that he has great treatment but a backup never hurts.

THe best wishes I can send are comin at you and your family

That's horrible news, but hang in there.

I'll keep your family in my prayers.

Rob,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Your other family here at the EBMM forums are pulling for you. God bless.

 

[robelinda2]

Thanks guys, you are a wonderful bunch! Its so easy to think negative, the doctors keep outlining all the things that could go wrong, its overwhelming. We are trying our best to stay positive, the surgery has gone for 4 hours so far so it cant be too much longer to go. The waiting room is a terrible place, people crying non stop, i had to get out, lucky there's this public internet thingy just down the hall.

Sterling you are a super guy, words cant say what a feel after reading your post. Thank you.

 

[Headstock]

Best wishes to you and your family Rob. I echo what the others have stated here. Stay positive.

 

[Dizzy]

Rob, my heart sank when I read your post.

Sincere Best wishes to you all.


BP, you've got a heart bigger than Phar Lap's.

 

[Astrofreq]

I'll be praying for you, as are countless others.

 

[midopa]

Oh man.. All the best for you and your family Rob! Awesome gesture too, BP.

 

[SteveB]

Rob, my prayers are with you. I've got two young'uns myself, so this hits me where I live.

Stay positive.. babies are amazingly resilient!
