UPDATE 2.10.12
Mike flew down to pick up Roman and his family, and they all arrived back in Lincoln safe and sound. Also, it looks as if the doctors were successful in their efforts to help Roman overcome the complications he experienced after the initial surgery. This is great news! He is now free of his breathing tube and ventilator, which was the main objective of his procedure.
Your contribution as a team member makes these stories possible. Thanks for all you do!

UPDATE 1.20.11
“Roman has experienced a set back and can use all our prayers. He had exploritory surgery Wednesday so the doctors could get an idea of how well the bone graft was holding. It wasn’t clear as to if he wasn’t breathing well on his own because he wasn’t used to his new way of breathing or if there was an issue. They discovered a large amount of scar tissue building up as a result of his numerous surgeries. So, much to his and Janean’s dismay, the breathing tube is back in and he is back on the ventilator. They are “hitting the area hard” with steroids to try to reduce the swelling and scar tissue, which is causing Roman to be very aggitated, aggressive and “itchy”. He hasn’t slept well for days which is making it worse. They are hoping the steroids work so the trach doesn’t have to go back in and have this all be for not. Keep Roman in your prayers, he’s a tough little guy and could definately use them.” -Roman’s Mom, Janean

You may remember the story about 4-year old Roman Austin at the Christmas Party. If not, click here to get filled in. Roman was in need of surgery, and the procedure he needed had to be performed 1,300 miles away in Ohio. The trip requires a 3-week stay, and transportation was a big obstacle for his mother Janean.
After coming across his story, we realized there was an opportunity to step in and and eliminate one of the hurdles the family was facing by providing transportation. This week, we flew Roman and his family to their destination and helped make arrangements for their stay. You’re ALL a part of supporting these efforts! Thanks for all you do each day to make these Mission stories a reality.
