VICENTE PERCHES STORYWe discovered at our 22 week gender ultrasound that Vicente had an undiagnosed skeletal dysplasia. Our son was showing signs of shortened and bowed long bones of the arms and legs, despite the presence of any genetic abnormalities in either of our families. We were referred to a perinatologist in Springfield and to the Fetal Medicine Care Center at St. Louis Children’s Hospital/Washington University for further consultation, amniocentesis, and genetic testing.

We spent 5 weeks waiting and mourning over the several potential diagnosis thrown our way, unsure if our son would survive the pregnancy and birth or what kind of life he would have, if the diagnosis proved non-fatal. However, we continued to make trips to St. Louis to see specialists every three weeks, to have fetal CT scans and advanced ultrasounds while having follow-up visits with the perinatologist and OBGYN in Springfield.

It was confirmed that our baby boy had the gene for Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) type V, or brittle bone disease, which predisposes children to fractures. Vicente decided to come into this world early at 36 weeks and 5 days with three healing fractures sustained in utero. He spent a week in the NICU at CoxHealth, where his breathing and pain control was monitored; he is now over a year old and is so far thriving. He has suffered 5 fractures to date that we are aware of. He receives his pamidronate infusion to increase the density of his bones every 8 weeks, participates in water therapy weekly to help meet his developmental milestones, has physical therapy with First Steps monthly, and will go to the OI clinic in Omaha yearly. He has had a hernia repair surgery and a port placement thus far. He is also a candidate for future rodding surgeries in his legs and arms as he becomes more mobile, which may allow him be to bear weight on his legs. We are not exactly sure what the future holds.

Vicente is such a happy, good natured, smiley little boy. He loves being read to, bath time, music, and his water therapy!

Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals has already made such an impact in our family’s lives, by providing funding for Vicente’s NICU stay, hernia repair surgery, mobility rider, and therapy sessions. We have also received help with travel and lodging expenses for his Osteogenesis Imperfecta Clinic appointments and treatments in Omaha, NE.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM GOLF TOURNAMENTSScramble for Miracles

The 16th Annual Scramble for Miracles Golf Tournament presented by Heavy Duty Rebuilders Supply was held at Fremont Hills Country Club. The tournament netted $19,036 for local children with medical needs. During this year’s event, the tournament was named in memory of Scramble for Miracles founder, Burk A. Day, who passed away June 25, 2017. Special thanks to Derek Day, Roy Lorenzo, our sponsors, our players and all our volunteers for carrying on the great tradition started by Burk.

The 2017 McLane Golf Tournament was a successful and fun event. As a national partner with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, McLane Ozark, through various fundraising activities in 2017, raised over $38,000 for CMN Hospitals at CoxHealth. Special thanks to Greg Mitchell and the McLane Ozarks team for an outstanding year of fundraising for our local kids.

Party In The Parking Lot

PFI’s PBR Party in the Parking Lot was nothing short of a perfect opportunity to support our local sick and injured kids. Special thanks to PFI Western Store and Randy Little, CEO & President of PFI, for raising $7,500 for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

TOY DRIVE BENEFITS HOSPITALIZED KIDSThe holiday can quickly get gloomy for anyone when they have to spend the season at the hospital but with the generous intervention of The Missouri State Highway Patrol who made special toy deliveries, in honor of Corporal John A. “Jay” Sampietro Jr., hospitalized kids at CoxHealth found a little reason to smile and play. The toys delivered were collected during the 11th Annual Toy Drive for hospitalized kids at CoxHealth, thanks to the MSHP, Krispy Kreme, and many generous donors!

Additionally, Walgreens made a special toy delivery to our hospitalized kids at CoxHealth as well. This was made successful due to more generous donors who participated in the Walgreens Toy Drive as well as our Ozarks Area Walgreens team. Thank you!
