THE MIRACLE BABY.....A BLESSING IN DISGUISE A stunning and unbelievable case!!. Brandon, whose his wife, Brittany, was expected their first , knew something was wrong. During her 17-week ultrasound, the couple learned the sex of their baby but also got the unexpected news no first-time parents want to hear: The baby wasn't developing correctly. Doctors said he would likely die in the womb or stillbirth, because of the rare condition that caused his brain to develop abnormally. Doctors said he would never speak, walk, see, hear, smile and understand, so no motor skills. Medical professionals suggested terminating the pregnancy because the baby was at a high risk of dying in the womb or being still born. But the mother refused any idea of abortion, preferring to leave her pregnancy to continue until birth time. When the blonde-haired, blue-eyed was born in Aug. 27, 2014, Doctors found out he had "Microhydranencephaly", a severe brain development abnormality. It stunted his brain's growth and kept it at about a fifth of the normal size, and his head was flat. His story has touched the hearts of millions around the world. Jaxon, now 1 1/2 yes old,. He has been nicknamed now as "Jaxon Strong" . Instead, he's thriving and reaching new milestones every day Even with the piles of gifts delivered daily from followers around the world, his parents say no gift could be greater than keeping Jaxon's remarkable progress going. Brittany, said "I was certain he was going to be born alive and fine. He is my , and I'm going to love him the way God created him.",. There has been huge worldwide, to raise Jaxon and for his treatment. His parents said they're giving the cash to the hospitals researching similar conditions and various medical facilities that have helped them and can help other families going through a similar situation. "His story is going to benefit the medical world and help benefit other families that will walk in a similar path as us in the future." Jaxon loves morning snuggles, playing with toys and trying to crawl on the floor. But he is often constrained by a feeding tube and a cocktail of medications he takes four times a day. He sees a variety of doctors to make sure he's on the right track. "The vast majority of who have had Microhydranencephaly either were aborted or died shortly after birth, so there isn't a lot of similar cases to compare Jaxon. The miracle little boy is doing and progressing well, contrary to what he was supposed to be. Wishing him an enjoyable long life. BUT....... I really wonder what sort of life he will have in the future!!. Only God knows. Thanks for your views, Hope the story of this miracle little boy has pleased you. Lisa.          |

I saw another article about this child a month or so ago. It will be interesting to see how he does as he matures. Obviously he has some brain function where it counts. One of my daughters had a baby with anencephaly ( the absence of any brain). It was not possible for him to survive on his own. Research suggests this condition is due to a vitamins B12 deficiency at a critical stage of the development of the nervous system. Spiritwoman ^i^

What a challenge for you, and what courage. Any child, no matter what the deficiency, is a blessing. He looks very aware of what is going on around him, and its lovely to see the little growth of hair. He is a special little lad and you are special to have had him and not abort him. Let us know how he is getting on. I will remember him in my special peoples prayers, God bless little Jaxon and you.

His parents will need a lot of support. They will benefit from their hard work and the love of a special gift.

I have a friend who many years ago was told by the doctors his unborn child would have down syndrome and they were advised to abort. He wasnt sure about this and his christian wife was adamant they would not. It was a stressful time. The baby came out normal, the tests were so so wrong. Actually the son is brilliant, top marks in school, plays soccer and tennis like a champion. He also plays drums in the church band and now is working with his father in his business during school holidays. Judgment Day will be interesting - and all paths lead there.

I only can say: God, please bless those wonderful parents and their strong son!  What beautiful eyes he has! Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.(Khalil Gibran)

SpiritWoman dear, hi, Am so glad reading from you on my blogs, thank you for your visit and for your comments. All babies with similar cases have died, either prematurely or at birth. But Jaxon has reach now over his 1 and 1/2 year and he's doing well. Let's hope his improvement will continue, for the researchers to find other ways to save or cure other babies as such in the future. Thanks again, Spirit,I wish you a fine day, Lisa.

Looklook MBN, hello, Thank you for your pleasant comments on my above blog. Though with only one fifth of his brain, Jaxon has been able to live till now and doing well as any other child. His case is a special one as Drs. have said and he is being followed very closely too. This will be another keen experience for the medical world and for future cases too. I wish he continues to develop well just as other kids but all depends on God's wish of course. Enjoy your day MBN, keep well and happy always. Lisa.

Hermit hello, Thanks for coming back and reading and commenting on this blog of mine. I do appreciate your above comments, Yes, you are right, sometimes the Drs may be wrong but in the case of Jaxon, his team of Drs, have been exactly right when seeing the abnormality in Jaxon's development in his fetus state since long before his birth. But, as his mother had refused to abort and wanted her baby to be born however God has created him. This was her decision and now Jaxon's parents are happy that the little boy is improving stunningly, regardless his abnormality. We pray for his continuous growth and let God decision prevails. Thanks again Hermit, I wish you a pleasant day. Lisa.
