Celebration for Robbie

Today Robinson and I went to his Neurology appointment with Dr. Bristol who has followed him since his birth at St. Joes when he was diagnosed with his grade 3 right ventricle brain bleed. Today, his bleed is completely resolved. We reviewed the xrays from birth to today. When he was born, his brain bleed was slightly smaller than a golf ball. It was located in his right ventricle. She said he was lucky because it never spread outside of the "ball." She said it stayed within the ball the entire time and decreased in size slowly over time. Today, there is no sign of it, and his ventricles look normal.

We have been told many times by various people in various professions that Robbie definitely has a significant purpose on this earth and has been defying the odds since the day he was born.


yes we had a party............. a pajama party!!!

We definitely feel like celebrating today and Robbie will be the center of attention on this day (just the way he likes it). Take a moment to have a small celebration for Robbie today. The doctor says she does not think there will be any lasting effects from this bleed, his brain looks completely normal today.
