The radiologist report.

Today I went to go pick up the disc containing the images from Avery's CT and his xrays. With them was the full report from the radiologist.

on the 12th they did the xray.

It says

Findings: the coronal and sagittal sutures are not well seen. Worrisome for premature fusion.  If further evaluation is desired, correlation with CT is recommended.

Our pedi set the CT up for the very next morning.

The results from that say..

Findings: Unremarkable Brain Parenchyma and CSF spaces. Intact bones. Partial closure of the metopic, coronal, sagittal and lambdoid sutures compatible with craniosynostosis.

Today I contacted Avery's cardiologist. I am not sure if all of the stuff going on with his heart will add any risks for surgery. Or, if any added precautions will need to be followed. But, they've faxed over everything needed to the Neurosurgeon. So, I guess we will find out on May 8th.I hate the waiting. And not knowing exactly what Avery will be going through. But, at this point there isn't anything we can do but wait. Avery's "Aunt Kathy" and my friend Candice both had Avery put on their prayer list on Sunday. It's comforting to know he has so many people who love him and are praying for the best for him.
