Emma's MRI results



Thanks for your patience this week as you’ve waited for us to tell all of you about her results.  We know you’ve been praying and we are so grateful.   

We didn’t get to talk with anyone about it until Tuesday afternoon and we still haven’t talked with the neurosurgeon himself.  However what we’ve been told is that she will need surgery.  She has three tethering regions in her spine.  They said it is complex and may even require more than one surgery.  However, surgery is not an urgent need and she has no restrictions on activity or anything like that.  (She was running and climbing like crazy at the park this evening!)  Because we are moving to Florida mid August, the specialists here are trying to help refer us to doctors down there.  So we have no idea yet what surgery will entail or when it will be scheduled. We sure appreciate continued prayers.

In other news…Elsie’s Gotcha Day will be September 2nd!
