William Morris Fejes

William Morris Fejes "Moe" was born January 12,2004. He was three months premature due to my severe pre-eclampsia. He is still in the NICU. Moe was born at 27 weeks 4 days. He has chronic lung disease, anemia and a mild case of ROP. He has had 12 blood transfusions, trached on April 2, double hernia surgery on April 19th, still on cpap, trying to wean.
Since the trach Moe is a much happier child. He takes bottles, which he never did before. His quality of life has improved 100%. Moe is just a happier child now that he can breathe. He has put on 2 pounds since his trach and can move his head where ever he wants!!!!
Moe was born at one pound 7 ounces , 11 and a half inches long. As of today, he is 6 pounds, 6 ounces and 17 and a half inches long. The developmental specialist said his eating (i.e. bottle feeding) is amazing since they rarely give bottle to kids on cpap.. We are lucky and grateful to to have him...

Update October 16, 2004: Moe died last night at Children's Hospital. The fluid just overtook his little body and the vent settings were so high ... He put up a great fight.. 40 days of battling, we thought he was gonna win. The funeral should be either tomorrow or on Monday. Those of you who knew him, thank you for being a part of his life. For those of you who helped us through this, thank you.. It was a long 9 months 3 days and 4 hour and 15 minutes. I just wish we had more time.
