An Update on My Daughter

[amberfocus]

I can't believe I haven't been on LJ in a week. Well, actually I can. It has been pretty darn crazy around here lately. It's been 2 weeks since my daughter fractured her skull and we had her follow up appointment. The place where she hit her head was directly behind the vision processing center of the brain so we weren't sure what that was going to mean for her eyesight. In the beginning she had blurred vision, double vision, and tunnel vision and there was the risk that it would be permanent. Fortunately it is not. It has cleared up and it looks like she is going to be fine there. Her prescription on her glasses may need to be adjusted, but she's not reading much yet, so we don't know for sure. But a minor script change is nothing compared to what it might have been.

I am so grateful to you guys and so many others for keeping her in your prayers. It means a lot to me. I believe it has helped in so many ways and it has certainly boosted her spirits to know that so many total strangers to her would take the time to do this for her. So thank you so much. I always knew you folks were awesome, but this just reinforces that.

I had missed this news, but I am so very glad that the injury has not been worse, and that it has been healing so well. All my best wishes, not only to her, but to you and the rest of your family, because I imagine the stress and worry has been almost as bad as the actual injury. You're in my thoughts.
