Neurologist News

We went to the neurologist this morning to get a better idea of Ella's MRI results. Joe and I are both very encouraged by what the doctor had to say this morning. Her brain is slightly larger than it should be because she has lost some brain matter in the swelling and then receeding of the fluids, however the doctor isn't concerned about it at this point. He also said that the venuos angioma is not a concern at this point because it isn't putting pressure on her brain. All in all we aren't brain surgeons, haha, but I think it looks pretty good. We are still meeting with the neurosurgeon in 2 weeks, but we are going to wait on the second opinon from Cook Children's till we talk to the doctor at Medical City. Our neurologist said that the neurosurgeon will probably tell us their isn't anything to worry about, pat us on the back and send us on our way...we'll be happy when that day comes and goes.

Kidney test tomorrow...pray that they find NOTHING wrong. Also, my mammogram was rescheduled to next Tuesday so say a prayer there as well!!

My baby girl, Ella, is fine. Keep on going to the doctors and you'll know too. She's a little slow, but it is only a matter of time and she will catch up. It is just a reminder to us all where we have been and how far we have come and how faithful He is to His promise. Ask and ye shall receive. She is the most beautiful baby girl - and what a kisser! I look forward to tomorrow's news.
