    Default Update on Abey

    Hi gals! Just wanted to write a quick update. Abram is 4 1/2 months post op and has been wearing his helmet for 3 1/2 months. This week we have appointments with both the CFS and Neurosurgeon. I am sooooooooooo hoping they'll give us the green light to finally ditch the helmet. I really feel as if it is holding him back in so many ways. With it on, he just sits and plays with his toys. With it off he is all over the floor, rolling, scooting and crawling backwards. Several months ago the neuro told us he really didn't even need it, our orthotist said that the surgery was so successful that it's basically just for protection, so please please please keep everything crossed for us on Wednesday! I'm so tired of almost having my nose broke by just kissing my little man!!! Geesh!
    I also added a few new pics! check them out! :-)
