PRE-OP TESTING


On tues April 28 we will be getting a C-T of Aydens C- spine under anesthesia because they need to be shure it is safe to hyper extend his neck for the 6 hr LTP.His brain stem sits lower that where it should typically be,therefore he needs to be more careful whenever it comes to tipping his head forwards or backwards.We talk to the neurosurgeon the next day about the results.We know that he will never be able to play contact sports,but that's ok there are many other things he can do.His Dr. that diagnosed him joked with us at one time,that we my have to tell Ayden if he asks too play soccer one day "no,but you can be the stats guy!" Jay was crushed!,but it did get a laugh out of us,I think it was his way of saying everything is gonna be alright & so far it is.
