Jackson Gaffny JJ's Journey

First post: Jul 23, 2017 Latest post: Sep 6, 2017
Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. 


JJ survived a severe stroke at birth and as a result is suffering from a unique type of seizure called infantile spasms. Medicine is not able to stop these detrimental seizures so brain surgery is our next step. JJ will be having a left functional hemispherectomy on July 24th at Boston Children's Hospital. He will always  have his struggles, but we hope seizures won't be one of them.  Despite these hardships, JJ remains a very happy and vibrant baby boy!
