Aylish Update

Aylish was such a TROOPER having her MRI done.  The technician told me that she is the youngest child she's ever done that didn't need sedation.  She was a super star, held completely still for the entire 45 minute test.  I was so impressed, I had heart palpitations for the 3 minutes I went into the MRI machine to show her how it works (yeah, I'm a baby).

The results took about 4 days to come back - - - felt like 4 weeks!  As I sat in the Dr office and heard him tell me her results came back NORMAL tears just ran down my cheeks - I don't remember anything else from that visit.

Today, a month and a half on, she still has a lazy eye.  Last week she became the proud owner of a snazzy pair of specs though - she is in LOVE with her new look.  The hope is that the glasses will help to pull the eye back into position, if not then surgery will be the next step.  We are going to try the glasses for at least 6 months and then if there's still no improvement Dr Novak and Dr Haynes will be referring us to the Children's Hospital in Calgary.

As of yet, I cannot see a difference but who knows what her measurements will show when we go back to the specialist in 2 weeks.

I am so thankful to my Father in Heaven for always being mindful of me and allowing me to feel the warmth of his love at all times.  It's been a rough ride and it's still not over but I know that he is there.
