Elliott, Bessie and I are back from Douala having his MRI. Things look a bit better than we hoped from the Ultrasound but they also found a new "something" at the base of his skull. Not sure what it is. We will meet with the Neurologist on Monday now instead of tomorrow. He was called away for something... We are praying that he calls us and tells us to come in tomorrow. Please pray for a miracle.
Thank you all who prayed and who gave. Please keep the prayers and the finances coming. We have a long road ahead with discovery and treatment. I will be in Yaounde until next Friday at minimum. Elliott is on a medication for 7 days. At the end of the 7 days we will repeat his EEG to see if anything has improved. If it has not, we will be hospitalized here in Yaounde. We are praying this doesn't happen!
In spite of everything he went through today, moments after we arrived home he giggled (the first time I have heard that) and he smiled a few times...
On the way home, he got his fingers in his mouth and was sucking. He wasn't able to do either of these things before because his muscles were so stiff!
God is a Healer! He is bigger than any illness we face. We trust in HIM to fix our precious boy!
Thank you again to all who gave and the many, many people who are praying for our boy. Please don't stop. we are in this together!
Blessings!
Praying!
