What is biliary atresia? Biliary atresia is a rare condition in newborn infants in which the common bile duct between the liver and the small intestine is blocked or absent. If unrecognized, the condition leads to liver failure. The cause of the condition is unknown. The only effective treatments are certain surgeries such as the kasai procedure, or liver transplantation.

Say a little prayer

Wacky was admitted to the hospital this afternoon after being found that his portal vein is narrowing and he will undergo another surgery tomorrow. The doctors will put a stent that will help the portal vein to expand and perform its function.


I don't know what to feel, we just came to taiwan for his annual check up and yet, again, my son will undergo another pain.. In a way, we are still lucky because his condition doesn't have any signs that there is something wrong, the doctors found out in just the right moment..

God is really good, He gave us the funds to go back to Taiwan, so that we will know that something is wrong and needs to be attended the soonest possible time.. Although, we are not financially prepared for the said operation, I know that God will provide..

Again, we are asking for your prayers and support that Wacky's operation be successful and may this be his last..

Thank you and God bless!

Out of the Hospital

The second week and third week of September showed good signs on the level of lymphatic fluid on Wacky's drain. On September 21, his drain is finally removed. By September 23, he is discharged from the hospital ward and is now staying in the dorm. If all goes well, the family is set to come home in the first or second week of October. 

Added to the good news was having Rafael, Wacky's "kuya", visit them for a week with his Mama Lenie (Caress' mother) after being separated from his family for more than 5 months.




Thank you for all your prayers! We are all looking forward to having Wacky reunited with the rest of the family. =)
