Another Cute Lukey Story

Well Luke made it thru the MRI fine yesterday. They did have to put him out for it, but he had no problems with that. One thing we did not know, is every time he has an MRI, someone has to be there to reprogram his shunt. We ended up being at PCH for 5 hours total getting the MRI and then waiting for someone to come and reprogram the shunt. We will meet with the neurologist on Monday to get the results.

Here is another cute Luke story. On Monday my aunt Kelli was here with Luke while I was getting a hair cut and running errands. She discovered that if we open up Luke's eyes and show him something to do such as stick out tongue he will do it! There is also a toy he has that if you pull the carrot it pulls out. We open his eyes, show him the toy (doing no talking at all) and he will pull it. Same with his gun, we open his eyes and he will grab it and pull the trigger. Anyway, Mike came home on Monday, Luke and I were outside watering flowers. Well the weather is cooling off and the critters (mice) are in the garage so Mike has been setting traps. He caught a mouse in the trap. So, he picked it up and took it to Luke and opened his eye without saying anything. Luke grabbed for the mouse. He did it so quickly I screamed in a panic because he was so close to grabbing it (those of you that know me well, know how deathly afraid of mice I am.) So this is a great discovery!!! I think it has to mean he can see pretty good!

Monday we meet with the neurologist and eye dr. Please, please pray for positive results at both visits for us! No matter what happens...we believe, look at all the strides the gladiator has made! God is so good!
