So after a month of waiting because I was sick for our last appointment. We were able to see the MRI pictures of Kayla and get the final words of what the future holds. As many know Kayla has what is called Hemi-vertebrae meaning she has a cluster of vertebrae right below her neck that are triangular shape instead of a normal rectangular shape. But the best news of that all is the Kayla's nerves and spine are completely fine and her spine is very straight. So we only have to monitor it as she grows, which is just wonderful news. We will go in for x-rays now, no more MRI's yeah every six months. Or if we notice and curvature of her spine as she grows.
We were also able to fine out that the bump on Kayla's head is a dermoid cyst. We were concerned that it might be bone which would mean Cat-scan and then Kayla would have to have surgery to get it removed. But thankfully it is a cyst and Kayla can get it removed at any time if she would like. Mike and I have decided to not remove it now because Kayla is so little and they would have to put her under for the procedure. But we think her hair will hopefully cover it up as she grow and when it does bother her and she is older she can get it removed. To get it removed when she is older means they would just have to give her a numbing shot and cut it out. A much easier procedure compared to if we chose to remove it now. So good news all around we just have just a strong amazing girl, who amazes us everyday with how well she is doing.
The appointment ended sooner than Mike and I thought so we then walked over to Quiznos and had a nice lunch together with Kayla.
