We took Micah to Primary Children's Hospital for a follow-up appointment with his personal neurosurgeon yesterday. A fresh CAT scan indicated that the new shunt is working well: both his right and left ventricles look much reduced (a good thing). The doctors remain concerned about his "fourth" ventricle. It's located in the back / base of the skull and looks both a bit over-full and somewhat full-er than the last time we checked it out (a month ago). This ventricle can impinge on areas of the brain that control sight, eating-related musculature, etc. We're to go back for another look-see in a month.
Micah's doing well overall. He's generally a happy camper and seems more responsive every day (to me, anyway). He'll even smile socially every now and then (that is, in response to some outside stimulus). We visited a mobile clinic at the Utah Schools for the Deaf and the Blind for a comprehensive developmental checkup a few weeks ago. Either I'll add a quick report on that visit later, or Melissa will do so. Overall, the news was good (especially where his prospects for mobility / motor deficits are concerned).

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
