Re: Request for Good Thoughts for Livy - Update

[Guest guest]

Livy had her scan this morning. This time the scan went much more

smoothly. Livy was given some gas and that's it. No IV, no

intubation, no waiting until she had a wet diaper to discharge us.

Thank goodness! In the recovery room, Livy actually laughed and was

in a good mood. took her to daycare in time for lunch and the

teacher said she was having a good day. I am so grateful for

everyone's kind words of support. I'll let you know what we find out

about the scan results (doctor will call next week, I was told).

> Hi all! Livy is scheduled for her second CT scan tomorrow morning

to see whether the thumbprinting is going away. When she had her

first CT scan in late November, one of the doctors saw spots on her

skull where the brain was pushing up against the skull and causing

holes to form on the skull. The doctor said that 9 out of 10 times,

this condition resolves on its own. Please send good thoughts Livy's

way for tomorrow. We hope and pray that the CT scan is performed

without any problems (she will be under general anesthesia) and that

the scan results are fine. We won't find out about the results until

April 21st, her next appointment with this doctor.

I will keep Livy in my thoughts and prayers. Glad to hear the scan

went ok. That must be one load off your shoulders.

Sohnia,

Thanks for the update. What a relief both that the scan is done and

that it went more smoothly than last time. Please let us know when

you hear.
