Prayers please!!

This is my oldest boy his name is Jameson, he is the sweetest little boy ever. I had my Jameson in 2012 at 29 weeks, I had severe preeclampsia that almost ended up taking both our life's due to how bad my doctor let it get. Luckily we had another OB step in and took over saving me and my son. We were told he would have problems but we never saw anything wrong with other then him being small (he was 1lb 10oz at birth). As he started growing still we didn't notice anything different at all. Once he started walking we saw he was always on his tip toes but everyone including doctors kept telling us how normal it was.

So we ignored it for a while, till I started noticing he always walked like that he would never walk flat it was constant tip toes, we he ran tip toes, we he laid down his feet were pointed like he was on his tip toes. So I brought it up to his doctor and she agreed that for 3 years old he should be calming down on the tip toe walking. She sent us to a specialist and she told me how stiff his legs were and thought maybe it was just the tendons needed to be stretched. She gave me braces to put him in every night and sent us to physical therapy.

We came back three months later and there was a little bit of change but nothing crazy. She talked about bringing him back again in three months and putting full time cast on him she just needed his tendons to be stretched a little more. During those three months Jameson was in a lot more pain and I notice he would rather be inside then outside (was always an outside boy) and when he was outside he would complain how his legs hurt and ask me to hold him which was odd for him because he always wanted to walk by himself.

So fast forward today, I take him in thinking he was going to get his cast. Doctor started examining him again and his legs got worse 😞 then she starts examining his arms as well and his left arm is starting to get stiff and weak. She says she will brb and 5 mins later comes in with two other doctors who exam my son then they leave the room again. She comes back and says that they think our boy has cerebral palsy due to him being born so early and they are sending us to a neurologist to confirm it. My heart broke, I would of never thought it was that and was caught way off Gaurd by that today. We go see the neurologist august 4th and I just need prayers right now. Sorry for it being so long, I haven't really talked to anyone about it today so I needed to vent it out. This is my handsome boy ❤️
