The results are officially in

After a phone call yesterday at 11am with no info from the doctor and a promise of a call back later on, I was discouraged. My mood got worse when it hit 5pm and no call back. I called again and left a message. At 6pm much to my surprise, the nurse called. She had our MRI results. And it is official....the MRI WAS NORMAL :) minus the curvy spine of course.

Huge sigh of relief to have the official news. So what's next? We have an appointment with the Ortho doctor next Wednesday to discuss treatment options. While we are breathing a sigh of relief, I ask for good vibes, prayers, whatever you can muster for another adoptive family who didn't get the same good news we did and may be looking at spinal surgery for their sweet little one.

We also had what will likely be our last physical therapy session this morning at the medical clinic. The therapist was thrilled with Kiya's progress. She thinks her new shoes are really helping. She is impressed with her muscle tone development. She thinks she is still a little weaker in muscle tone than other children her age but she is making positive progress. We went through some exercises to continue working on. She also referred us to Birth to 3 if we wanted to seek their assistance.

Well, Birth to 3 is coming next Tuesday for our evaluation so we will see if she qualifies for physical therapy through them and then decide what to do from there based on what they recommend.

So there are still some questions as to what is next but at least we know what we are dealing with. Kiya is a trooper so we are encouraged that in time all will work out.
