Sam’s ‘Little Ninja’ Improving

Many of you Berry Pickers know that Sam and Kat Taylor’s newborn son, Wesley, has had a life and death struggle since he was born last Thursday afternoon, three weeks early. Now, Sam had developed a Web page for friends and other Hucks Online commenters to follow the improving condition of his “little Ninja.” First, Sam provides background: “Upon birth, Wesley suffered from Respiratory Distress Syndrome, meaning he has weak lungs and he needed help to breathe on his own. After spending some time in a special care nursery at the hospital, he suffered a pneumothorax — by straining or crying hard, they’re unclear, he tore a hole in one of his weak little lungs. Air leaked into Wesley’s chest cavity, his lung collapsed and the pressure began pushing on his other organs, including his heart.” You can read more and folo Wesley’s page here.
