Our journey through life with hemiplegic cerebral palsy and infantile spasms

Finally some good news

Today Karsen had an appointment with the eye doctor. I had no clue what a eye doctor was even going to do or be able to see with a little man as young as Karsen, but he was able to tell enough. I left the appointment wanting to jump up and down, screaming "WOO HOO!!!" For those of you wondering "what do they do for a baby at the eye doctor?" Well, they look at tracking, and light reflection. They make sure the eyes work together and not separate. He passed with FLYING COLORS!!!! He told me that most kids with hemi cp would have a loss of peripheral vision on the affected side. Karsen showed no signs at all of any vision loss. Finally, my little man gets good news!!!! We have to go back in for one more test, since one piece of his equipment was out for repairs, but he said its just to be on the safe side. Here is to a wonderful day (I hope all you readers out there had a wonderful day as well. If not, try to find the good in it... it's in there, just not always obvious)
