Shon - I'm SO SORRY to hear your story.  I don't have anything helpful to say except I'm praying for you and your child.  Praying strong prayers.  : (

I'm very sorry to hear your son is sick.   I hope the Dr's can help him.  Please be careful posting your number on a forum like this.  Not everyone has good intentions.
