More Stuff for Mia
So, yesterday Mia's pediatric surgeon called me and wanted to talk to me about her MRI from last year. I had requested she get an MRI done on her lower back to see if she had a tethered spinal cord because I had been hearing so much how it goes hand in hand with an imperforate anus. I didn't remember her being checked at birth and I had read that it can cause bowel control issues because of potential nerve damage. Well, after her scan last year he had told me that everything looked great, but in reality it wasn't. He looked at her scan again after seeing us on Tuesday and it ends up that she does have a tethered spinal cord. So now we are in the process of scheduling appointments with neurosurgeons to get their opinion on what should be done next and how soon it needs to be done. It's been a tough couple of days for us, so just be praying for her and a resolution. We continue to trust God and are grateful that we have Him to lean on during this time.
