Katie's Checkup at the Doctor

We took Katie to see Dr. Sood this afternoon. He checked her incision, and the area where the tumor was and said that everything looks great. He still wants her activity restricted for another month or so as far as school gym class and activities where any abrupt contact to her head could possibly occur. The skull is not completely healed yet.

Katie will need to be on seizure medication for at least a year, post-surgery; then be gradually taken off of it. She will have another MRI around 6 months, post-surgery.

On May 21st Katie is scheduled to have her braces put back on. Her new braces will be able to stay on when the time comes for her next MRI.

We're so thankful for how far the Lord has brought her up to this point. She truly has been blessed.

"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
UNTO HIM BE GLORY...!"
