Praise the Lord!!!! MRI results are back!!!!!

Wow! I was not expecting to hear anything about Tulah's MRI results until our appointment on Friday, but the Dr. just called with the results! There is absolutely no spinal cord or nerve damage to prevent her from being able to have the hip surgery she needs!!!  This is a HUGE praise!!! Apparently there are some circumstances in which any nerve, or damage to the spinal cord, would prevent the hips from staying in place, therefore surgery wouldn't be an option. We were certainly praying that this would not be the case for Tulah! And prayers were answered!!!! Thank you all so much for your prayers!!!! Prayer is powerful!!!

The MRI did show a very tiny cyst in her spinal cord called a Syrinx. We have been referred to a neurosurgeon to  evaluate this cyst. The Dr. thinks that because it is so very small, that this won't require any treatment, just monitoring. We will see a neurosurgeon on August 7th to look into this further.

God is good, all the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
