TODAY, MAMA HAD A DOCTORS APPT WITH HER NEUROLOGIST DR. BARRY AND IT TURNED OUT TO BE A A 6 HOUR ORDEAL. SHE HAD A MRI DONE OF HER HEAD AND SPINE,THEN SHE WENT BACK TO THE DOC'S OFFICE AND HAD NCV, IOM, EP AND EMG AND TO MAKE IT FINAL SHE HAD AN E.E.G. DONE..WHICH SHE HAD TO WEAR FOR 48 HOURS. SO, I AM SURE YOU ASK WHY MAMA IS HAVING ALL THESE TESTS..WELL, MAMA HAS SPINA BIFIDA OCCULTA..SHE FOUND OUT ABOUT A YEAR AGO. NO ONE KNEW BEFORE I WAS BORN THAT SHE HAD IT...WHICH MAKES MAMA VERY SAD. our LESIONS ARE IN THE SAME PLACE L4-L5. THEY ALSO FOUND OUT THAT SHE HAS NERVE DAMAGE IN BOTH LEGS...THAT IS AFFECTING HER BLADDER...SO SHE IS GOING TO SEE A UROLOGIST ASAP. HER MRI INDICATES THAT THERE IS DISK PUSHING ON HER LESION..SO THE DOC HAS TO FIGURE WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO. SO LETS JUST SAY IT HAS BEEN A CRAZY DAY. I GOT SO SPEND TIME WITH GRANDPA TERRY FOR ALITTLE BIT AND THEN DAD CAME HOME VERY EARLY TO TAKE CARE OF ME...WE HAD ABLAST. MAMA IS KINDA WORRIED BUT SHE IS A STRONG GIRL. IF ANYONE CAN HANDLE THIS SHE CAN. IN THE PICTURES, MAMA IS HAVE 22 ELECTRODES ON HER HEAD AND 1 ON HER CHEST.

Wow...Mommy!!! I don't even know what to say...I hope your tests come back ok. I hope the EEG doesn't show anything we don't already know. Goodness....SB Occulta. I'm sure your guilt is overwhelming.
I know I don't know you but I feel like I do and I pray all the time for our adorable...beyond belief...Ethan...now I'm praying for Marissa too.
