He also had a few other, less severe strokes. Took me forever just to get this diagnosis. I thought he had what's called an IVH for months. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, the stroke affected his vision on his right side, and also caused Strabismus. THere is some optic nerve atrophy, but all the doctors say he can see. Like your son, it definitely seems like some days are better than others. <BR/><BR/>We've also had some tone issues and hydrocephalus as a result of the stroke, but our biggest issue so far has been the vision. <BR/><BR/>Stop by my blog any time: littlerockbarnyard.spaces.live.com I'm in the process of moving to blogger, but haven't completely made the leap yet.Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189007616883663434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949044193661998101.post-24125571738418633912007-10-24T08:51:00.000-07:002007-10-24T08:51:00.000-07:00Isn't amazing how things can be such big wins?

What great flavor; we are hooked! <BR/>You are doing everything with great love, which reminds me of what Mother Teresa said (something like, "We can do no great things; only small things with great love"). That is wonderful "medicine," in my opinion. Three cheers for your family!<BR/>KarenGbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08895779471612397202noreply@blogger.com
