Today was a long day at the hospital. We started the day with an eye appointment. Good news is Peyton's vision has remained stable from the last appointment! That's always great to hear! His near vison is much better than his distance vision. However, he must hold things very close to his eyes to be able to see it. At preschool the teachers are really great about enlarging all his work and making him wear his reading glasses. That seems to help. He'll always have some challenges visually but we hope it's never severe. His vision specialist is teaching him Braille. He's really having fun with that. We hope it never comes to the point where he has to use that all the time but it certainly can't hurt to learn it in case. We have our own machine and can practice at home. Kids really pick things like that up quickly and he teaches me most of the time!
After the eye appointment we went up for treatment. All went well and Peyton was excited to see Miss Pat again!
Not sure whether his MRI will be next week as originally scheduled or postponed to December 2nd. I can't help being nervous and would rather keep the appointment next week, but the doctors are having a scheduling conflict so we'll see.
