Journey to Jameson

About Us

We are the Hayes family-- Brian, Gina, Owen and Jameson. Our son, Owen, is twelve years old and loves hunting and fishing with his dad and drumming in his two bands. We are so very proud of our new addition, Jameson Harper Hayes, the daughter and sister that completes our family.

I prayed for this child,
and the Lord has granted
me what I asked of him.
1 Samuel 1:27
We witness a miracle every time a child enters
into life. But those who make their journey
home across time and miles, growing within
the hearts of those who wait to love them,
are carried on the wings of destiny and placed
among us by God's very own hands.

Second and Final Surgery!!

She's all smiles as we go into Children's, although she'd been up since 2:45 with nothing to eat or drink. Bless her little heart.
J. and Mommy before surgery.

The hall is filled with kids on riding toys at 6 am.

Catching up on some reading before they take her back.

Playing a little game of Peek-a-boo.

Coming out from the anesthesia fog. Dig the purple Barney casts.

Nothing perks you up after surgery like a glove balloon! Dr. Doyle said that Jameson's feet are responding very well and he changed up his game plan a little. She will keep these purple casts for 2 weeks, have ONE more casting in his office, and those will stay on 2-3 weeks. Then, she will be getting a brace. Not sure how long she'll have the brace at this point, I guess he'll determine that when the final casts are off.
This was great news, only 5-6 weeks of casts instead of 9!! The treatment she had in China is definitely a factor in her progress, that brought her feet out a lot, just not as much as she needed.
Jameson should be cast-free for her first birthday!!!
