Hey Friends,
Are you ready for some fantastic news? Look at this Christmas gift!
Beckham is home with his Mommy and Daddy! Hallelujah, I feel like shouting! God is so awesome! Thank you, dear Lord, for answering this prayer for us!
If you are a new reader, Beckham is my Dad’s great-nephew. He was born the end of August. All but a few weeks of his life he has been in the hospital with breathing issues. His case has been a roller coaster, and left doctors scratching their head. They were searching for weeks on end for the problem and solutions.
He had surgery this week to correct the airway issue. Last report I heard, Beckham was doing well with his breathing! He sounds much better and was weaned off the oxygen.
We are praising God for helping Jonas, Kylee and Beckham through this major hurdle! As a family, we will take all the victories we can get and rejoice with them!
Thank you so much for praying for our sweet baby boy. Please do NOT stop praying. Last week, they receive another diagnosis for a completely different problem. It will require further treatment. I am praying for a complete miracle in his little body.
Here is a short explanation in my understanding. I borrowed Kylee’s wording for some of this explanation. He has been diagnosed with Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD).
“This is a genetic autoimmune disease. It is a rare condition in which affects only 1 in 200,000 people in the United States. This disease causes infection-fighting white blood cells to not work properly or are not there at all. In Beckham’s case they are almost non existent.”
CGD affects his ability to fight different bacteria and fungi. There are certain things, and places they will have to avoid. This will NOT cause Beckham to be more susceptible to colds, flu, viruses or covid.
It seem like a Bone Marrow Transplant will be the method of treatment to hopefully, cure the CGD. They are hoping, praying and trying to find a match for the BMT. If he has to go thru it, hopefully it is sooner rather later.
Jonas and Kylee are hopeful and trusting in God. They have asked us to stay positive about the situation and help them pray.
We are praying hard for a miracle. I ask that you join us in praying for Beckham Boggs, his parents and grandparents.
Thanks for reading.
Odie
