My Son Frankie Guertin the 4th - Gastroschisis


guertin31 wrote: Hello all. My name is Frank Guertin and I wanted to post about the story of my son Frankie Jr. Our son was diagnosed with a rare condition called "Gastroschisis" which is an abnormality (defect or hole) in the abdominal wall that allows the child's intestine contents to protrude outside the body. We had such a unbelievable struggle and have come out with a beautiful boy who is doing so well...

I made a small web site about his story and for parents who are going through the same thing. We have a posting boad where you can leave messages or comments. We also update it with videos and pictures on a daily basis.

If you know any parents who have had been diagnosed with Gastroschisis, please pass this site on to them.

God bless, wink.gif

Your little guy is adorable!! My friend has a son who was born with that condition as well. He's 23 now, suffered no long term effects. You'd never noticed anything different except that he doesn't have a belly button! wink.gif I know it was so frightening at the time he was born, though! Good luck with your little one!!

guertin31 replied: Thanks everyone! I appreceate all the kind feedback!

We just changed his dipar size at...3:30AM... of course, after we changed him he decided to pee all over himself... thus, finding out the hard way we needed to change his dipar size... Priceless...

Thanks again!

If you like, you can post on his web site b/c one day im going to print it all out and make a book to show him when he is older...
