Then I can create my "worst case scenario" and then work to make it better. My son is two and if you looked at him and then at his scans... they do not agree.

One survived and one did not. The little fighter had multiple multiple problems. Shannon, his parents worked their tails off with him. He is now 9 and so smart. His mom said he likes to take things apart only to put them back together again. It can be done with prayer and determination. I'll be keeping you guys in my prayers that she surpasses all expectations.Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09534585383824685777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-243680436360637558.post-48584629882335536392010-06-16T22:12:18.504-05:002010-06-16T22:12:18.504-05:00Oh, wow.

Sounds like you are in for the fight, however, so good for you for that attitude. I'll be thinking of you.Confessions of a Mother, Lawyer & Crazy Womanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18328760054648644568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-243680436360637558.post-87871191596100398652010-06-17T00:05:24.523-05:002010-06-17T00:05:24.523-05:00We had an MRI done at 8 months and, though we have...We had an MRI done at 8 months and, though we have different brain issues, we heard many of those same words... Our child, too, we were told, will likely never walk, never talk, never sit or roll over, or have good functional vision, and we were told the best possible outcome we could hope for was only mild mental retardation in addition to everything else...<br><br>And we were told to wait and see.<br><br>But we're a lot like you. We did no waiting and seeing. We pushed and fought and prayed and sweat and swore and... <br><br>Now the neurologists wait and see what he'll do next that he was never supposed to do... The wise ones will tell you a baby is much more than a picture of a brain on a screen.<br><br>So, I want to share with you one of my favorite quotes, a quote that once upon a time meant nothing to me...<br><br>"Aerodynamically, the bumble bee shouldn't be able to fly, but the bumble bee doesn't know it so it goes on flying anyway." <br>Mary Kay Ash <br><br>Best of luck as you process all the news and start down this new path.
