Prayers for a quick and complete healing for all♥️
I'm 60 and my knees are beginning to bother me. I was told it's because when I was younger I never properly took care of "minor" knee injuries. Travis, my advice to you is follow the doctor's suggestions. Prayers.
If your daughter hurt her thumb you would do everything possible to make sure that her injury would heal and that she would get the physical therapy to make sure everything healed properly. Do the same for yourself. You are an adult now and not only need to be responsible but you need to show your daughter that you always do what's best even if it is an Inconvenience. You are not a doctor. That is why they spent so many years in college learning. Just like they are not musicians like you are and you know more in that area than they do. That's what growing up is. Taking responsibility and doing the right thing. Even if it costs money because that may be the most important money you spend right now. On Your Livelyhood! What would you do if you couldn't play your instruments? That would really affect your future! Yes, I am a mom and grandma. You owe it to your daughter to take the best care of yourself you can. Good Luck!
Prayers for complete healing Travis and for Hailey’s tummy problems! Love Y’all! Love and Prayers Always
If Hailey gets any cuter, my heart is going to explode!! she is so precious. I'm so sorry to hear about your injured thumb, I will definitely be praying for you and sweet Hailey, . God bless you and your family.
Praying for you Travis Quick recovery And I'll be praying for Hailey I love You guys❤
I'm keeping Hailey and you, Travis, in my prayers! I hope that you feel better soon. I love your family! ❤️🙏
You guys are seriously the cutest little family!!! Hope Travis gets better soon! Love you guys!
Travis, as someone that worked with their hands for a living (dental hygienist) I had surgery on my thumb due to ligament problems. You need to go to a hand specialist and a PT that is also a hand specialist. I had my surgery at the Roosevelt hand center in NYC, I now live in NC but lived in NJ at the time. Please, please, please go to a hand specialist. I was referred to my hand specialist from another hand specialists. He was the hand specialists for the hand specialists when they have problems. Unfortunately he is long retired but if you are a musician DO NOT MESS AROUND WITH THIS. Best of luck and happy healing.
Travis due to an auto accident my husband ripped the ligaments in his little finger. I'm an oiler get some lemongrass Essential Oils and massage that hand. It completely healed his hand when the dr. Gave him no hope. You have nothing to lose.
Praying for you both to have a complete recovery. Travis take care of your thumb so you can get back to playing and recording your music. You guys are a blessing!
Our daughter struggled with constipation issues as an infant and the pediatrician suggested giving small amounts of pear juice. We had to keep bottles of it in stock at all times, even as a toddler, but it worked really well for her and usually only took an hour or two to get her little system going😊
We always used pear juice for constipation. A little juice mixed with distilled water. Worked like a charm!
Several years ago I had the exact same thumb injury, and also had to do physical therapy. Thought it was ridiculous too but it was so important to do and my thumb is completely back to normal. Praying yours recovers quickly!
Prayers sent.
I would think as a musician that it would be even more important to have PT. I play piano and every finger is working when playing for sure. Though a guitar player or harpist would need their thumb even more than a pianist. Glad your thumb recovered! Sounds like a painful injury. I tore a ligament in my knee years ago and it still can hurt a bit when the weather gets cold.
Praying for a speedy recovery for Travis & Hailey... Love & Peace
Had a friend that jammed his thumb and didn't do therapy and had to have surgery at a later time. Surgery could have been avoided with the therapy. Listen to the Dr
Awe Travis I hope you get well real soon, you are the cutest family, love yous ❤️🙏🏻
Hailey is absolutely adorable with a great smile. Glad mom feels good. I pray it heals quick and well
Oh my, she is just so adorable! I can't even take the cuteness.
Praying for a complete recovery. Hailey James is so beautiful!
Coming from someone who's had a pretty severe hand/thumb injury that also involved the tendons....DO THE PHYSICAL THERAPY. It's not "just a thumb" a pinky, yes. The index finger, yes. But the thumb is almost vital to your entire hand function. You have no clue how valuable those thumbs are until you can't use one for an extended period of time. In my case, my thumb was cut to the bone right at the second joint on the inside so it's right where you bend your thumb when using it. During surgery the Dr's had to dig down into my wrist to retrieve the other end of the tendon to reconnect it so that I could regain some form of movement after it healed. I had to be in a full on arm brace (up to my elbow for a month....keep in mind the injury was to my thumb and thumb only. My hand nor any other fingers were involved) then I was in a hand brace for another month. All because when healing....tendons are like mashed potatoes (that's what my hand surgeon told me) granted yours wasn't severed like mine, I'm just trying to tell you how delicate they are. 15 plus years later I still don't have 100% movement back, I'd say 95 if I had to guess and about 80ish % feeling back. I can't quite feel the ridges on the edge of a quarter, which is how the physical therapist graded my long term nerve damage. It's an ordeal when you mess up a thumb so take care of that hand!!!!
I will pray for perfect and quick recovery for your thumb Travis! Really do love you kids!!!
Praying for a quick recovery 🙏
First I want to tell you I had an accident in Switzerland and broke both my knees and (at the time) straight away told my husband that I had hurt my toe. (big toe) I had to have a four hour surgery on both knees and spent a week in the hospital over there. When you can't walk for 7 weeks, you aren't worried about your big toe. Four years later, I just had to have surgery on my toes. The big toe had all the bones crushed in the joint and it doesn't bend. That isn't what was fixed. The second and third toe was going right and left. It was painful and I put up with it for 3 years. They said I had torn the ligaments in my toes and they cut them. I am 3 months out, I have worn a spacer 24/7 and I have been told they don't think cutting the ligament has fixed the problem. The thought of another surgery is just too much for me to think about right now. My advice is to do exactly what the doctors tell you. I had physical therapy and it did help strengthen my knees. You do not realize how much your big toe and your thumb is used and how they are used. Go to therapy!!
Hoping Travis is feeling better, and very much hoping he does the PT 🙂 While your thumb is small, it is a vital part of hand function and you for sure want to have it heal properly. Ligament tears are awful, much longer healing time than bones, and that PT will help so much! I broke 3 bones and tore nearly every nerve and ligament in my foot when I was 5 months pregnant with my 2nd boy. The bones healed completely within 5 months, it’s been over 6 years now and there are still nerves and ligaments in my foot that haven’t fully healed (although I do pretty much have full function of my foot with the exception of my toes not being able to move quite right still haha)..I know PT can be annoying, but it will help, I promise!
Happy belated 10 week bday Hailey may you grow to be the angel God made you to be. Praying for Travis that it's just a bad sprain.
Girl. My baby turned 19 today. My heart is broken as he left for his fathers (a mile away) in July of 21. I’ve seen him once. Hold those babies tight!!!!!
Praying for a complete recovery for Travis. I would also encourage Travis to do whatever the doctor says concerning the physical therapy. I also have heard if you do not do that, especially since you are so young, you could actually have much greater problems when you are older. Even to where it might turn into some kind of a deformity in your hand/thumb.
I had a fracture on my hand and had to wear a cast for eight weeks at least. Everything is great now!
I love Katie’s tenderness towards her daughter’s growing up so fast.
Praying your hand heals fast and Hailey's tummy gets better!
Katie’s makeup is flawless
Prayers for your thumb Travis. Hailey is absolutely precious and also praying for her tummy issues. Katie, enjoy each moment with your sweet girl and sometimes we need to cry a little. They do grow up so fast. 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
If the constipation with Hailey persists you can massage her belly in a clockwise position (not immediately after eating). Or certain stretches can help babies have bowel movements. La Lactation LLC has TH-cam videos demonstrating some ways to help babies poop.
Also, you can have an evaluation from PT/OT and inform your therapist that you need a home treatment program for your lifestyle needs.
Travis & Katie are so wonderful
Do the PT!! It's the best, most important thing you can do for yourself and your family.
Sending 🙏🙏🙏🙏 for Hailey and Travis!!
Praying for complete healing Travis. Please get it taken care of. Hailey looks just like Travis now. She's so big. You are right Katie. Time flys.
Please do physical therapy. Your thumb is really important! A horse stepped on my right hand 2 years ago and they said that I am fortunate to still have my thumb. My pt said that you only have I think 90 days or maybe 120 days and wherever your recovery is, that is where it stays. Do the exercises they give you and when they ok you to move it then really push to move it. I only regained half use in my right thumb and a little better in next 2 fingers. The therapy can be painful but push through it because you have your whole life ahead of you and a fully functional hand is important. I deal with stiffness still and always will but very rarely is it painful. God bless you and give you a quick recovery. I'm praying for you. Soft tissue damage can be far more serious than a fracture or break. 👍🙏
Hailey is so adorable. Prayers for you all.🤗
Prayers for precious Hailey Bug and for Travis’s hand! 🙏
If Hailey is having stomach issues it could be something you have ate or drank. I changed my diet. By drinking a new flavor soda and my daughter had tummy issues because what I ate went straight to my milk. Back in the day because I'm old doctors were very strict on my diet while nursing.
Just an FYI, if she is 100% breast-fed with no formula it’s not unusual for them to poop once a week. One of my children did that (she’s now a 37yr old ), the only caveat is you do want to be home on the day that they poop because it ends up being from head to toe and they need a full bath! 😂
Travis, the doctor is correct, torn ligaments are way more painful, and a longer recovery than a broken bone. Katie is correct. You definitely want to do physical therapy.
I was going to say the same about bfeed babies :) Some poop a ton and some poop 1x every 10 days. I've had both! Hang in there!
Praying for a speedy recovery for travis 🙏 and little Hailey 🙏
Physical therapy does amazing things. It's a time commitment, but worth it. Best wishes!
Travis your thumb is the most important digit on your hand! Go to a hand specialist. I’ve had several hand surgeries and am thankful I did.
Travis - when my daughter was younger she did the same thing as a softball catcher. Look for a good hand specialist. It’s important. Prayers
Prayers for a quick recovery. Haley is so adorable. Love watching y’all guys y’all have a blessed Saturday night.❤🙏
You really appreciate the opposable thumbs when they are hurt! Take care! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Katie is the greatest Momma ever! You guys are a wonderful family. Seeing Hailey growing up is so sad and wonderful at the same time. You guys are awesome!
Another thing to remember is that exclusively breastfed babies actually can go weeks without having a bowel movement and that's actually perfectly normal because breastmilk is so perfectly made for their body. Like I said in the other post, so many pediatricians give bad info on this and totally overlook the great benefit of chiropractors and probiotics. If there really is a good issue that will definitely help, giving juice this young will really just mess the gut up more.
You're in my prayers and may our Lord keep you safe, healthy and give you strength. Blessed weekend beautiful family ❤❤❤
Praying for quick and full recovery on your hand🙏🏻
Try the matcha with cold vanilla sweet foam on top. It’s a game changer 😍
You need to see an occupational therapist for your hand. I worked on PT /OT for 24 years its worth it to get them to strengthen your hand
I fell downstairs and put my hand down to stop myself and bent my thumb backwards. I tore the Ulnar Collateral Ligament that holds the base of the thumb to your hand and tore it 3/4 of the way through. I had my hand in splits for 9 months and my thumb wiggled from side to side. Gross I know. As it never healed I got referred to an orthopaedic nurse for review who said it would never heal by itself being a ligament rather than a bony injury. I needed surgery on it and It’s on my right dominant hand too and so it’s left my hand extremely weak and my thumb set at a weird angle.
If yours doesn’t heal completely and you know that it isn’t back to normal go back and insist on a review. My hand specialist OT should have picked this up and now I’m left with reduced movement and no pinch or key grip xx
Haley is so cute!! And getting so big! I’m gonna be a grandma for the first time in August to a baby girl my oldest daughter!! I can’t wait for baby cuddles with Layla!! Xx 12:24
Life’s little inconveniences that we all face. Take it one day at a time. Stay safe and well and thanks for sharing all that you do. Your daughter is so cute.
Apple juice fixed our first baby right up instantly when he was having troubles. Baby #2 is a week younger than Haley and we have had to do apple juice, prune juice, suppository, and some Miralax in his breast milk bottles to get him moving. Right there with you!
My oldest grandson 25 now had the same problems with severe constipation his pediatrician suggested 3-4 drops of dark Karl syrup in his morning bottle it helped him tremendously.
Ah I had this same injury! Got a lobster claw cast for 6 weeks and went to an OT consult. She taught me what to do and I did the therapy myself at home. It took about 9-12 months until it was totally pain free and I regained full mobility but I’ve heard people have issues for life if they ignore it! Praying for a speedy recovery!
As a musician who put off neck surgery (i was rear-ended at a red light by a girl texting) I did all the things and tried to avoid surgery, but now a week out I know in the long run itll be worth it.
So sweet to see Travis' love for you Katie. Just seeing that he gave you his jacket at the resurant, since you didn't have one at that outing. I love seeing couples that care for each other. And Katie you confirming to Travis that he goes to physical therapy. So important to have one by your side that will think of your best intetest.❤
There are so many ways to parent. We did the same for our children - who suffered a range of stomach issues... but - a tiny amount of watered down apple juice is absolutely fine and will get them "moving".
Hope baby Hailey is doing better but just in case she’s not or this happens again in the future you can pour quite a bit of organic olive oil in the palm of your hand and rub your hands together to warm it up and then rub her belly all around especially over the intestine area (left front side) until it’s fully absorbed in. Do this a few times a day until it helps. My great grandmother taught me this and it has always worked. After massaging the belly gently for awhile, you can even place a lightly warm heating pad to help absorb it in.
Kinda funny we just landed a bit ago from visiting Camden and we were in that same rain on Friday. Hope Travis heals quickly too.
Blessings
And I’m sorry for the hand injury! In 2019 I have fallen and got a boxer fracture in my right hand and I couldn’t do things for a while. So I totally understand what you’re going through. Hope you have a speedy recovery. Please keep us posted.
I’am an RN and spent most of my 35 years of nursing in Outpatient surgery. I would recommend you go see an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in hands and let him evaluate your hand and send you to physical therapy. Urgent Care was definitely correct when they said it takes longer for strains sprain’s ligaments to heal than fractures. Take care and God Bless love your music.
This is excellent advice!!!
Please see a very good hand specialist. It will along with PT help you overcome this injury.
Prayers for Hailey and her tummy. Travis please do what the Dr. said about therapy. You want to play the piano with both hands 👐 and teach your daughter one day right 👉? I have a son Joshua who is 38 and he is a nurse. He hurt his right thumb one time. He was told his guitar 🎸 days would be no more. He worked and worked and with therapy he can play his guitar...praise the Lord. Thanks for all your videos. I love to hear you sing. Katie you remind me of me and my husband Ken who is a lay minister. You guys are such sweet parents. My sweet Ken and I are 64. We have been married 21 years May 16❤. The grandson Silas is 6 and we are teaching him to lay hands and pray. Silas loves to sing. My dad sings good for 84. Ken says I sing good. I love itbut I am shy and can't sing in church solo. I love old church songs and new praise and worship 🛐. So this old Grandmama Tee in TN. Is a loyal fan of the Bates and Clarks...God bless you and love you.❤➕ ❤
You two are doing so great , with Hailey, God has really blessed both of u
You need to listen to your wife and do the physical therapy. Trust me it is so worth it!!! Praying for it to heal!!!
Prayers for Haileys tummy to feel better soon.🙏
Praying for you Travis for a quick & complete healing. 🙏
Katie you have your hands full - but GODS got this !!
GOD Bless Your Precious Family 🙏🙏🌹
Love 🌻 from NC 💜
Prayers for Travis's hand. ❤
Hi Katie and Travis. Dilute prune juice with water or Miralax mixed in her milk helps to stimulate bowel movements in infants. Check with her pediatrician 1st, but if all else fails, a suppository made from Ivory Soap and lubricated with Vaseline may be needed. Both of my girls had digestive issues as infants and a combo if these things helped. Also lightly pushing both of babies knees at the same time to her chest helps.
I always added karo syrup to my babies bottle. Maybe a teaspoon per every eight ounces. If feeding a 4 ounce bottle, then only 1/2 teaspoon.
My husband completely tore the ligaments and after needing surgery to repair it PT helped get full motion back. I will keep you in my prayers. And Katie and Haley as well....
Go to one PT visit and ask for exercises to do at home. It's more affordable as PT visits are expensive, even the co-pays can be pricey.
Travis... with all love... do the therapy. I have developed painful arthritis in my wrist and thumb because I was a hard head and refused to do therapy. Now, I have tremendous pain when I try to play the piano, and I can't stretch the width to play the octaves. Sometimes we bring trouble on ourselves because we try to save a little bit of money. I have to admit that I don't always listen to the doctor because I feel as if they are more motivated by government directives than carrying for the patient. However, in this case, I recommend that you listen.
Hope your hand heals quickly Travis, and also, apple juice should definitely get little Hailey’s plumbing flowing! It was an old top when my son was little .Heads up- when she’s toddler age, dilute juices because…yeah.
Prayers that your hand heals quickly and that Hailey stomach feels better.
My daughter had antibiotics when she was born. Tore her stomach up. She was constipated all her life. As an infant we had to use prune juice instead of water mixed with her powder formula just to keep her bowels moving. I feel your pain. Keeping y'all in prayers.
Sending prayers to you Travis that your thumb heals quickly 🙏🏻💙 and prayers to baby Hailey for her tummy Issues to get back on track 🙏🏻💕🌸 Katie your an amazing momma sending love & hugs 💕🙏🏻🥰
Prune juice. You can buy prunce juice concentrate for babies. Works great and is gentle. Used it for 3 of my 4 babies.
Just thought I would let you know about Arnica Montana, you can get it in cream and sugar pellet form. you can look it up and research it to see if it is something you want to try. it is all natural and homeopathic. it helps with healing faster, pain, and bruising. I gave it to my 10-year-old daughter that had an AVM burst in her brain and the Doctors could not believe how fast she was healing.
I hope this helps you Travis. Take care and feel better.
100% do the Physical Therapy. I have had a similar injury on both hands (different times). Do the PT, it will help.
Prayers for fast healing.❤
Breastfed babies can go a while without pooping. Breast milk is complete nutrition so there really isn’t much waste. My daughter went 10 days once.
I haven’t herd of apple juice to make baby poop but I have herd prune juice is affective.
Hope you have a speedy recovery Travis and Katie enjoy every minute of baby Hailey they don’t stay small for long
Love you guys.
From Australia 🇦🇺
Fascia massage and chiropractor care can help tremendously with Haileys tummy troubles! Hope Travis heals quickly!
Hailey is so precious and adorable 😍 💕 💖!!!! She looks like one of those reborn baby dolls when she's asleep!!!! I'm praying 🙏 🤲 for her little belly to get better and for Travis's hand to heal up quickly 🙏 ❤️ ♥️!!!!
Ive heard and read somewhere that its normal foe breastfed babies to go up to 2 weeks with no poop after they are about 2 months old or older
A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY 👼🏼🤵🏼👸🏼💯🤍❤️✨👏🏻🔥
Helloooo, babies who are breastfed dont have poo for days. That is what we are told in Australia so i wouldnt worry too much. Warm baths help to relax belly so hope it helps... good luck
Yes, listen to Katie and the Dr's advice. You are young and with a little physical therapy, you should heal just fine. Don't let things go because when you get older like me, you will end up regreating it. Love and prayers for your family. ❤
You both are awesome and Travis please do pt. Physical Therpy they will work with you on exercises and strength of the tendon. Don’t you do it!!!! You do not want to injure it more than it is. You want to use the piano, guitar etc don’t you??? Than be patience, let it heal an gradually do your pt. Bless you both and will send prayers for you all an Miss Hailey 🧸
Totally agree with Travis about matcha. It tastes like grass clippings!
Please go to a specialist and do physical therapy. At 22, you are optimistic but you need to medically treat it the best you can and heal properly. Especially as a musican. Please think long term. Prayers for you all.
Keeping you guys in our prayers and pray that Travis feels better soon🙏🙏🙏🤩
Travis yes do PT. I just had thumb surgery removed bone tendon fused to thumb and in few weeks thumb therapy with someone who does hand therapy. Sending prayers to you all.🙏❤
I tore ligaments in my thumb years ago and it was brutal. If I hit it just right now it still gets me. Good luck Travis.
Travis, advice from a musician and band teacher here. Do the PT. Take care of the injury now. It’s worth it to take care of it now so it doesn’t get worse. My chronic pain and injuries almost took my career. Take care of it correctly now.
I would add white karo syrup to her bottle once a day, like 1 tsp. And shake. That what I used for my babies!
OMG! She looks just like Travis mom! So adorable! Sending you lots and blessings! Your friend Kathy from Montgomery NY
You are both such a wonderful blessing with these videos and your music, especially. I love you all, so sweet family you are....
Praying you heal quickly Travis. Prayers for Hailey's little belly and prayers for Katie...aka Super Mom/ Super Wife!!
