This is an update on the condition of my grandson who had brain surgery October 12, 2007 and that I spoke about in my Blog. Here you can see how is doing when he says his first word, STINKY.

If you look close you can still see the scar on the top of the front of his head. He is a happy baby. He still has to wear the helmets to shape his head, but is doing great. His big sister nicknamed him MR. Baby.

Thanks so much for your prayers and support for this little one. He truly is a living miracle.
God Bless.

Oh gosh Al, that video is awesome. You are right Mr. Baby is a "miracle baby." I noticed the scar as well, but I am sure it will fade. He sounds great. Is that your voice in the background? When was this videotaped? God bless Mr. Baby, oh, and thanks for sharing.

The voices in the background are my daughter Elisa who one time came on the forum and thanked everyone for praying for Mr. Baby, and the other voice is his father my daughters husband, Daniel.

They are so proud of how well he is doing.

Capt AL,
This video is so funny! What a scary thing for your family to experience-brain surgery on such a little baby! I'm so glad everything turned out so well. He truly is a miracle baby.
I watched the other three videos too. Your grandchildren are precious. I'm glad you can enjoy them.
Hang in there, AL.

My Grandson that the other children call Mr. Baby (Lil Daniel) just had his first birthday this week. Thank God for miracle babies. For more information see my blog.
For those who did not see it here is his video link again.

Short summary, He was born with the bones in his skull fused together, which caused great pressure on his brain. They had to do brain surgery and remove a section of his skull, to allow room for growth of his brain. He has to wear a helmet to reshape his skull as it grows.
