Well we just had out meeting with the boys doctor and head of neonatology. Gavin's PVL won't get any worse. No more cysts should appear and the area should no longer grow. His cysts are only located on the posterior end of his ventricles. It could be a lot worse and stretch along the entire span of his ventricle. The injury is in the white matter not the grey, so he should suffer no intellectual delays. Because of te location of the damage and the extent the doctors believe he will has motor and muscle movement issues but will not be wheel chair bound. Only time will tell though.

We will continue working with physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy on discharge.

If the boys stay spell free they should be home in a week or two! With cold, flu, and rsv season we won't be having many visitors except those helping me with the boys. And you all will be stripped down, gowned, and sanatzed. Just kidding :) but you will all scrub up and no one with even a sniffle, cough, or itchy anything will be coming over.

That's all for now!
