11 days out till surgery!
Q: How many surgeries and why??
As I had mentioned last post, every case of Imperforate a**s (IA) is a little different. In Malcolm's case, his re**um attached to his bladder instead of the normal opening like most people have. This wasn't caught until his 24 hr checkup when a nurse caught it. Within 20 minutes he was in NICU getting his little tummy pumped so that he didn't hurt his intestines. Within 48 hrs of being born his colostomy bag had been placed. This is basically an opening in his stomach where one part of his intestine comes out so that he can expel f***l matter.
His second surgery that was to make his re**um opening also known as a PSARP. His surgery went great and we have even had a few "racing stripes" of diapers (scared the p**p outta me! *Pun intended 🤣😅*)
This last surgery is to reconnect the intestine that has been at surface level (his ostomy) and get the p**p train a going! 🤣🤣 I cannot express how excited we are to have p**py diapers and no more bag!

Hi all! We are just over two weeks away from Malcolm's third surgery! I have had some questions about his condition, his surgeries, and what his future may look like, so I thought I might answer some of those questions over the next two weeks.
What is his condition?
An Imperforate a**s (IA) is basically where the re**um does not form correctly in utero. In his case, it attached itself to his bladder. There are so many other conditions that can corelate with IA, which is why we believe he has only one kidney as well. We are lucky he has such few conditions as heart, bone, eating, and other digestive issues are very common to happen as well. There are so many different forms of IA that every case is really unique and different solutions may happen for different families. This is a life long condition, though we will not know the extent of his control/lack of control of any part of his re**um until close to potty training age.

More information later this week!
