Brian Littrell’s son Baylee was admitted to the hospital last week for undisclosed illness. The Littrell family asked for prayers.
\nAn update on Littrell’s website says:<\/p>\n

Before being admitted Baylee had been treated for or thought to have had strep throat, hand, foot, mouth disease and erythema multiforme. After receiving a biopsy, blood tests, an EKG and 2 echocardiograms, Baylee was finally diagnosed with A-Typical Kawasaki Disease. We would like to stress A-Typical because Baylee did not have text book symptoms of any of the viruses they thought he had.
\nKawasaki Disease causes inflammation in the coronary arteries as well as the walls of the small and medium sized arteries throughout the body. Unfortunately, Baylee’s coronary arteries were affected. He received an IVIG, which is a treatment to bring down the inflammation in his coronary arteries. Baylee will be closely monitored for the next 6-8 weeks by a Pediatric Cardiologist to see if the treatment was effective.
\nWe want to thank every one who prayed for us as well as all of the emails and phone calls. Your love and support means so much to our family. The Hospital Staff were absolutely amazing. They made an extremely difficult time in our lives as comfortable as possible.
\nWe are humbled by the love and compassion that people have for our son all over the world, thank you!
\nBrian and Leighanne Littrell<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Please keep the Littrell family in your prayers. As you Backstreet Boys fans will remember, Brian Littrell himself suffered from a heart problem that was fixed several years ago with surgery. I’m sure that Baylee’s illness is equally scary and stressful.
