Happy Anniversary (Caleb Paul Hlebiczki: Surgery is Started)

I remember this day well. One of Caleb's 40-some surgeries. This surgery, like many of his others, gave him a chance of life. But this one, would help him build an immune system. If kids who are born with one of the two syndromes Caleb has don't get this transplant before 2 years old, they have no chance of survival. He had a tough road and we almost lost him a couple times, but he fought. He knew he needed this transplant. We will celebrate Caleb's Thymus Transplant Anniversary today. Happy Anniversary Caleb. We love you so much, and couldn't be more proud.
Caleb Paul Hlebiczki: Surgery is Started: Well, Caleb went into surgery earlier than planned. The first case cancelled so Caleb went in at 8:45 and they are planning on a two hour s...

God Bless you all!!

God Bless Caleb and Camryn!!

Caleb had several anomalies to deal with from birth due to his two rare syndromes. Some have been repaired through many surgeries, others will be managed via different methods throughout his life. Some of these anomalies are: hydrocephalis (water on the brain), agenesus of the corpus callosum (missing the major bridgeway between the left and right side of his brain), kiari malformation (small and low set cerebellum), abnormal folds on his brain, deafness (deaf in the left ear and moderate/severely deaf in the right ear), cleft lip and palate, two holes in the heart, an extra atrium (chamber of the heart), hypoparathyroid, severe GERD (reflux), double hip dysplasia, no immune system, severe delays and aversions, hernias (umbilical, inguinal, hiatal), history of pancreatitis (due to being on IV nutrition for an extended amount of time). The list is extensive but this is a general introduction of what Caleb has dealt with.
