Update From the Neurologist

Ethan's Neurologist spoke to Ashli last Wednesday night (I thought I posted this then, but it was still languishing in the draft state today) and while the problem in the ventricles of the brain is of concern he feels that there is no immediate threat but they will continue to monitor the condition. One of the things that they will be looking for is additional sleepiness and lethargy. The doctor was actually encouraged when Ashli asked him if Ethan's staying awake for a long time (for babies) was indicative of anything. He says that being awake and alert is the opposite of what they would observe if there was damage in these areas of the brain.

Praise him from whom all blessings flow.....

Sean wanted me to post this picture:
