Heath's Journey 3/25/11

Still on the fence on if the surgery is worth the risks. So I asked him if we did more testing would that give us any more info. Heath's last MRI was in Nov and was to rule out a twisted neck. Now that we know he has Chiari I asked him to do the CSF MRI, and a full spine to look for a syrinx or teathered cord.

Heath's Journey 3/23/11

Ok how to start. I'm going to have to go back a few weeks so this may get long. On March 11th I got a phone call from the Nero S nurse and she read me the Apnea results and they are not good. His sleep study was 6 weeks ago, so after that wait you think the news of what we are doing next would be better then "come back for a visit in 3 months"!!!!

Heath had a wonderful Christmas. He was into his gifts this year but still needed some help with the paper. Heath is still seeing his PT and ST once a week and TOD every other week.
