LA Again

We were off to LA again this morning to visit her intestinal doctor and see what the next step is in stretching. He was pleased with how everything looked, so we are moving up to a number 8 (8mm). We will be doing this for another 2 weeks and then we'll see him again. After that we were off to our next visit with her helmet place and they made a few minor adjustments. There was the thought that maybe on her next visit we would be done wearing the helmet, we're going to give her another month or so to see if there is anymore major growth...but probably we are nearing the end of our helmet days. I did mention that she's getting glasses and they said that they can cut slivers inside her helmet to fit the frames and it's not a problem to wear glasses and the helmet at the same time. Tomorrow we have an appointment to look at some options for frames for Mia. But, I am happy to say, we don't have to go back to LA for 2 weeks!!! I am super excited about that, so hopefully nothing else develops that causes us to change those plans.

Brad and Lisa,
I hardly ever leave a comment, but know I am faithful and pray daily for all of you. I just had to let you know that our eye doctor in Shafter recommended that we use Ken's Optical, 2022 N Chester, Bakersfield 393-2554 or 393-2020 for our glasses. He actually makes his own. It might be so that you don't have to go to LA again.
Love, prayers and Big Hugs
Joyce
