Kacyn

After a long day of waiting at the hospital, Jennifer & David finally received the diagnosis & action plan from the neurologist.

They are releasing Kacyn from the hospital, but are going to observe the fluid buildup. If it gets worse, a shunt will be put in to drain it. The neurologist also told them that Kacyn has severe brain damage from the accident. His brain cortex (the top of his brain) is minimal & he is missing a lot of brain tissue. He does not expect Kacyn to develop much past where he is right now. He said any development will be good. He also said it would be a year before they know what the long term outlook is for Kacyn.

This was very disappointing & upsetting to hear. But we know Kacyn has surprised the drs from the very beginning. They have been wrong many times. The first neurologist that looked at Kacyn's MRI results was surprised he's still alive, didn't think he'd be able to breathe on his own or suck a pacifier, etc. Kacyn's developed way past those things. The drs can only report on what they can read on the test results. They don't know what God's plan is. We know & believe that God's plan for this precious baby is bigger than this. God is healing him just as he's healing Jennifer.

Please keep Kacyn in your prayers as well as the rest of the family. This news was very upsetting today. Even though we know God has a better plan for Kacyn, it was still very difficult to hear these things.
