Elijah May
Elijah May, a third grader at North Webster Upper Elementary, was diagnosed with Septic Arthritis of the left hip following a couple of days of what was believed to be a pulled muscle. Septic Arthritis is an infection in the joint.
He required emergency surgery as the infection quickly destroys the joint. While in recovery from this initial surgery, a spiked fever prompted more testing to find the infection had spread to the bone – Osteomyelitis.
A second much more invasive surgery was performed that involved drilling into Elijah’s pelvis and femur to treat the infection. He spent 9 days in the hospital and recovered at home for another 2 weeks before returning to school. He is back doing most of the things he loves while continuing to heal.
Boo Fain
Boo Fain suffered a stroke January 28, 2024. He is making little improvements every day. He is able to make sentences and communicate but has no use of his right arm. His right leg is getting stronger and with the help of a therapist, he can stand and take a few steps. He still requires the use of a feeding tube for medications and water.
