3 weeks ago today my baby boy was diagnosed with biliary atresia where the Kasai was performed. He was 10wks of age at the time of surgery. Before his diagnosis, my family and I had never heard of BA. I felt like my world was crumbling since my only child that I longed for for nearly 5yrs, had been “blessed” with this rare liver disease. I find myself wondering “what did my baby do to deserve this”? But as a child of God, I believe there is a reason and a mission for my son and I to fulfill in this lifetime with this rare disease which has been called upon us.
I am accepting everything as the days progress and I am so glad to have found this site for the support I need to overcome the bad days that creep upon me. The waiting game is the hardest now that surgery is over. But we are strong.
