Glasses

James has had a busy week. On Saturday he did his stimulation test for hormone growth. It took about 6 hours total. He did a really good job. We got the results back yesterday and he does have a hormone growth deficiency. So most likely he will be put on growth hormones to help him. We meet his doctor in a couple weeks to go over it. Yesterday he went to his new ophthalmologist(whom I love) he's a great doctor. I like him  much better than his old one. They did lots of checking on his eyes and said he needs glasses. His right eye was a -4.50, which is pretty bad. His left eye just has a stigmatism. We picked out some cool glasses.  He is also scheduled for surgery in three weeks to try and straighten it out. We were also referred to a plastic surgeon and saw him today. He wants to do  surgery a month after the eye straightening one. They will put a weight in his eyelid to help close it. We did confirm with radiology and they said it won't affect his MRI scans at all. So hopefully we can fix his eye so that he can see well and can close it now. I hate putting him through more surgery but eyes are pretty important. He is still doing school and loves it. He loves riding his bus and comes home and tells me all the fun things he did. So grateful for my sweet James!
