Good morning all!
This morning is a great example of no news is good news. Bree is still on the room air (21%) oxygen, resting comfortably, and just being a good little girl. Our visit with the neurologist yesterday was very insightful for me, and I learned some good information. Bree does have a new brain bleed, however, it is not causing any new problems. The ventricle size is the same in her brain so they are still at a stage three.
The doctor explained to me that since her ventricles are enlarged due to the brain bleeds, that they will always stay enlarged even when the brain bleeds dissipate. Very rarely, she explained, do the ventricles shrink back down to their original size. Bree will have an MRI shortly after being released from the hospital so that we will be able to see if there was any brain damage caused from the brain bleeds or anything else.
Other than that, we, as a family, have a busy but uneventful day. Here shortly (right after I post this) I am going to get my oil changed, do some grocery shopping after that, come home for lunch and head off to a playdate (and mommy time!) with Ethan and Aleasha. After that, Adam and I are leaving Riley with Papa while we go to our first R-group meeting. The day is bound to pass fast with all those plans!
Hope this finds everyone happy, healthy, and in love with life!
