UPDATE
We are HOME !! After about 100 attempts with multiple Drs. to get a new tube in. They had a room ready and Him on the OR schedule. I jumped in and tried 1 last time and got it in !!! Thank you Lord Jesus ! His BP are still 120/96 Still way to high ,but we are OK with that. We meet w/ the DRs. next week to figure out what is next. It should not be this hard to Cath him.

Zachary is in the ER at the U of M.. Blood pressures 140/101 on 5 BP meds.. Mitrofanoff came out last night. No one is unable to Cath him .. Looks like maybe another surgery… Just waiting to see what is next. I will update when I know more.

Zachary has been having a rough couple of day’s … He has been sleeping lot, very puky and his head , he keeps saying doesn’t feel right. I am not sure why. They upped one of his blood pressure meds last week. I have seen no change , His blood pressures are still up and down. As high as 140/90′s and as low as 120/70. Which is still a little high, but I like…. Next week we see his Urologist. “Bladder Dr” I hope that he feels that his Mitrofanoff looks good and we can start to Cath him again. Zachary has been hooked up to continuos drain for over 2 weeks. He can’t wait to take a bath again… A real Bath!!

Thank you, to all Zachary’s fans on his website and facebook. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers.” I know that soon a HERO will be found “…..

I want to start by thanking everybody for all your thoughts and prayers… I am speechless with all of the HERO’S out there that have called in to Save our Zachary.. Since the WCCO News story there have been over 340 people that have called in to get tested. WOW !! That is AMAZING !!! As a parent this is the hardest thing to watch as I am unable to help him.. It’s all of you, complete strangers that we need to put our faith into to save our boy. Thank you, Thank you all for all your support. I know we will find him a HERO soon.

Zachary had his labs drawn on Wednesday.. They are stable…. Some high, some low ..but overall stable. I just pray that we find a HERO before I can’t say Stable. Last night was a better night for Zachary ,he only got up twice to puke.. But today he has been laying on the couch with a puke bag by him. I hope he feels better tonight because my neighbors are having a little gathering tonight.

Zachary is Amazing all of us.. His home schooling is going great !! I am so proud of him. About 6 months ago he was unable to say his ABC’S or recognizing any letters. now he can say his ABC’S and he is even learning how to read !! AMAZING !! Cindy, you are a blessing to Zachary and our Family.

The last couple of weeks have been very busy.. I just want to thank everybody for all your thoughts and prayers.  In the last month over 4,200 fans are on Zachary’s facebook .. Some Family, Friends but mostly complete strangers have become family to us. I am overwhelmed with all of the love, support and encouraging messages that people having been sending us. To sit here and read all of the encouraging words on Facebook that people write brings me to tears. And to see all the people coming forward to Save our Zachary, to see if there are a match. I can’t image my life without him. He has been through so much throughout his 6 years . Zachary is a fighter.. with every blood draw, IV, procudures , surgery and even taking his daily medications I always get a smile.

Zachary is still having issues with high blood pressure so today at his Drs. appointment they upped one of his BP meds. He is gaining weight  and growing ..Which is Awesome!!

Zachary is still having very restless night .. His ears are still buzzing and he he still having head aches. We are thinking because his blood pressures are not stable. We are hoping with upping one of his BP meds we can get better control of them.

Since the News story on WCCO there have been over 200 more people that have called in to get tested … It brings me to tears.. You are all HERO’S !!! I know we will find him a HERO ,with of these wonderful people.
