Eye Sight

When Gavyn had his neuro surgery last October he recovered well but two days after his surgery his eyes crossed. It caused quite the scare in our house, after neuro surgery a big warning sign that something is wrong is eye sight. We had to rush him back to Glennon, have a CT done and see his surgeon. Thankfully he was OK, unfortunately his eye sight has been greatly impacted since. Slowly they have been un-crossing and for the last couple months we have been doing eye drops every night to help them further. Next month we see his eye doctor again and see if Gavyn needs to have eye surgery to fix the problem completely or if the eye drops will ultimately fix it. Talk about a slow painful process - almost a year! I had almost forgotten how much progress his eyes had made until I was looking at pictures, this is him in February:


Look at how terrible that left eye is! This is him now:


 Woah! Keep our fingers crossed for no surgery!
