We wanted to get more insight into Grace's body what if any issues that arose during her gestation, delivery or hospital stay so we met with Child Neurology yesterday. Dr. Frank Berensen, and after his evaluation he wants to do a MRI, botox injections into her achilles tendon (right) and then hard casting (weekly) then off and re-flexion and then on again for three weeks.
My prayers (and my friends) prayers were so answered yesterday. The appointment went better than I could have ever hoped for. We told her about three days in advance that we were going to go see a brain doctor and see how her muscles in her body and brain are growing. The each day I would answer one of her questions or add something else for her to think about. I made sure that it was day to day talking not a big deal at all which I think was the key. She did not flip out or cry once. I will always cherish that memory. She is 39.5 inches tall and 32 pounds. Yes, thank you to the might-a-mins again!!
We got the MRI scheduled today for next Monday, 11-09-09. She will have to be sedated and I just ask you Lord to give me the perfect words to say to her before during and after. I know how traumatized that she can get with things and I only want her trust in me to flourish and not decrease.
