Sawyer See's Hope: Miracle

Hello, everyone! Thank you so much for taking the time to visit Sawyer's web page! My wife and I are using this blog as a reference point for people to be able get information on our son's condition and a way for people to possibly donate towards his cause. So, thank you again for visiting!

Sawyer's story all started at 3 months when we realized that our baby boy wouldn't track anything with his eyes, so we ultimately scheduled an appointment with our local ophthalmologist. He looked into Sawyer's eyes and quickly ordered an MRI of Sawyer's brain. When the MRI results came back we heard the worst-- our sweet angel had been diagnosed with Optic Nerve Hypoplasia and Septo Optic Dysplasia. What that means is Sawyer's optic nerve's are severely under developed, leaving him blind to the point where glasses cannot correct his vision.

After countless weeks of research and multiple doctors telling us that there is no real cure for his diagnosis, we found out that there is a Stem Cell Treatment in China that offered treatments with patients that had the same diagnosis as our baby. We contacted a representative from China looking for more information on this treatment. After weeks of gathering all the information and opinions we could, we are sure this is the best opportunity for Sawyer to finally be able to see what he's never seen before. This is a very costly procedure and as parents you would do anything to help your child out so, we're trying our hardest to try and raise $30,000 to make this possible.

We created a donate button on his blog so that we could try and raise the money for him to go. We know that times are tough and people can't always give so we are simply asking that if you cannot donate PLEASE pray for Sawyer and us that we can make this possible for him.

My wife and I can't thank you enough for taking the time to visit! The more people who visit, the better we can spread the word and the quicker we can get this treatment for Sawyer! God Bless!

Miracle

Last night something AMAZING happened. I was putting Sawyer to bed, later than usual and decided I'd try to see if he could notice my flash light off of my phone. I turned on the light and shined it in Sawyer's eyes and HE SAW IT! His nystagmus slowed and he tracked it! NEVER has he tracked anything before. I am so excited and in awe of what the Lord is doing to Sawyer's eyes!

I have a picture to prove that he saw the flash a week ago when I took a picture of him! I'm so so thankful guys! I believe this could be the start of something amazing.

When you're told that your child is blind and will probably never see, this is HUGE!
