Bella Bella bo Bella





We had a long weekend! I am so glad it is over! We went to Primary Children's Medical Center for Bella's MRI and found out some good news....I think!! I was so tired and emotionally drained that it all seems like a blur. I didn't hardly sleep all week because I was so worried about this little stinker! Anyway, the head neurosurgeon there came and talked to us about what was going on. He told us that she didn't have enough fluid on her brain to shunt her...which we were soooo relieved. I had been so stressed about that. Also, he told us that she had her septum pellucidum, which was the membrane they were worried that she didn't have. Anyway, she has all of her membranes, but for some reason her brain is underdeveloped. She is a couple months behind. He wants us to come back in 4-6 weeks so he can look at her again, and he also wants us to meet with an ophthalmologist, which is a doctor for her eyes. I don't know what to expect there, but over all we were sooo relieved about the news we got. We went down, expecting the worst, and came out feeling so much relief! We love our sweet Bella and hope she has a bright future ahead! I only hope I can have enough faith!! Thanks again for every ones prayers and for fasting for her! We really appreciate it more than you know!!!!
