** UPDATE **

So we got confirmation from doctors yesterday morning that Weslee will for sure be taken to the OR and be put under lightly unless he gets uncomfortable/shows signs of pain or aggravation during the procedure then they will give him a little more medicine to make him more comfortable. They are going in due to the sleep study I updated everyone about a few days ago. They are trying to find the cause of the sleep apnea, trying to see why or what's causing him to drop his heart rate and oxygen while sleeping. I do know for sure one side of his little throat is closed off, they saw that in the CT scan that was performed yesterday afternoon. They will be able to get a better look at his throat tomorrow as well to look at that issue to see if it just didn't fully develop or if something is pushing up against it causing that issue.

If you would please pray for our boy. Pray it's painless, during and after. Pray for the doctors and nurses in the OR, pray for steady hands and guidance as they work on my precious baby. Please pray over that entire OR. Pray my baby handles the sedation perfectly. Signing that consent to put my baby under hurt my heart even more. Reading the risks, sunk my heart and made me sick. Just please pray for us all. Thank you all SO SO much #wesleethewarrior #ourangelbaby #ourwarriorbaby #warriorweslee

Hello everyone, my name is Amber Arbaugh and I'm on here asking for help for my little family. I never thought I'd be having to make a Gofundme but here I am. I absolutely hate asking anyone for help because I like to do it all on my own, but I'm to the point where I'm an exhausted momma of five and I'm struggling. I'm here asking for help for my little family. I recently gave birth to my last little baby on November 26th @ 3:33pm. His name is Weslee and he is my little warrior. I went to every single OB appointment, anatomy scan, glucose test, you name it, went to them all however this wasn't found during any of my ultrasounds. I went in the morning of November 26th for my csection, nervous as can be. I went back into the OR and once I heard Weslee's little cry, I began to bawl. I heard my baby and he was ok. Nurses let me see him for a short second then swooped him away to be examined. I was laying there still having surgery when I over heard them say baby has a cleft palate. My heart sank. My heart broke. I didn't want my baby to be in any pain what so ever. So while they was finishing my surgery I couldn't think about anything besides Weslee, if he'd be ok, and about my other babies and what we are going to do. Fast forward a few hours to when the hospital pediatrician comes in to talk. He tells us Weslee is missing the entire roof of his mouth and will need to be referred to a specialist team that deals with cleft palates. I just continued to hurt more for Weslee and then stress started to sink in on how I was going to be able to afford it all. The hospital stays, the hotel stays, the gas, our food, etc. I had every single intention on returning to my job once released to do so because I love my job at NeuroRestorative so much and everyone I work with however, with Weslee's condition and needing multiple reconstructive surgery, hours away from home, it's not going to be possible unless I leave my baby and my mommy heart cannot do that. I cannot physically focus at my job knowing my baby is hours away at a big hospital having multiple major reconstructive surgeries. He needs me there. I have to be strong for him and my other 4 babies. That's why I'm here. Asking for help. Something I hate to do, however I'm desperate now. I don't know which way to turn anymore because I feel like we are drowning. I know my God will bring him through this. I have to believe there's a reason for this. I know how powerful he is. I watched him work miracles in Weslee's big sisters. I know what he can do. If you can't donate, I totally understand, but would you please keep Weslee in your prayers. Please pray for my little baby. Thank you all SO much!
