WE BELIEVE IN MIRACLES...

 Crew-A totally different kid!
So here is the story about my nephew Crew.  First off I love my sister Jillonnie but she has hard babies and Crew was the hardest.  He was always crying and miserable and my sister Jillonnie felt something was wrong.  After his first birthday she took him to doctor and was told he might be developmentally slow & an MRI was scheduled.  Well Crew has been throwing up on and off a lot, finally he got so sick my sister had to take him to emergency room.  There the doctor, (after hearing an MRI was scheduled the following week) did an emergency Cat Scan & found a lot of fluid on his brain.  He told my sister he would not have made it through the night, he was then rushed to LA for immediate surgery.  He was so weak that they had to wait till morning, however did an MRI and drained some of the fluid.  We literally had a prayer chain going from people all over the United States.  Words cannot explain how many family members, friends and even strangers prayed and prayed for him and my whole family.  It was such an intense time, yet an amazing experience to actually witness a true miracle.  
My sister gives more detail of the story on her blog- http://www.themanvillefamily.blogspot.com/
All I can say is the power of prayer is amazing!  It is also so amazing of what a completely different boy Crew is.  He is so happy and with therapy he will eventually get caught up.
We love you dude!
