My Story

Baby Wade's story isn't a long one yet. What his story is is a story of strength and courage and it's a story he continues to tell everyday.

The MRI showed everything is good except the back of his brain is really crowded. The doctor wants to rule everything else out before deciding on what to do. They will do a sleep study with EEG on Monday night and that will tell them if the crowding is really a problem. If it is then he will need a cranial vault again.

The baby is doing good. He just fell asleep about 30 minutes ago. He's such a trooper. He has been smiling and laughing off and on all day today. I love it when he smiles at me. Especially when he just looks up at me with those big beautiful blue eyes. His whole face lights up. He is such a joy to be with. He makes this so much easier.

The girls are with family for the time being. Big Wade will go home Monday to start back to work. I think we will have an pretty definitive plan by Tuesday. (The baby's nurse and I really think they need to just do another cranial vault, but they have to figure that out their way!")

I think we might have just a peaceful day tomorrow with a few minor things like blood tests and such. Wade and IĀ are fairly optimistic that we know what the solution will be but we also know that they have to run the battery of tests to come to the same conclusion, so with knowing that we have learned to become a little more patient over the last couple of years :)

More tommorrow...

Love,
Becky
