The Latest



Ok, the latest news on the Glaucoma front.

We have completed the second surgury on both eyes. Little guy came through the procedure better this time with regard to recovery. Because the waking up part was so bad last time the nurses made sure Tyson and I were right next to his bed as he came to. I was able to feed him immediatly and that helped quite a bit. In the days to come we could tell that this time around was more painful for him but as usual my son is quite the trooper.

We will wait to see what his pressure levels are in two weeks. We are praying that this will be his last surgury. It is so hard to watch him go under each time. We are scheduled for an eye exam under anesthesia on May 15th and we have signed permission slips for the shunt on the left side but again... we are praying they won't be necessary.
