Quick Neurology update

Ruth had her head ultrasound yesterday, but I didn't have the results until today. They showed stable ventricles and small posterior fossa. So, no change is awesome! I was also here when the neurosurgeons came by to look at her and they are extremely happy with how she is doing. They said every day she goes since her surgery with no change in ventricle size means less and less chance she will need a shunt. Please keep praying for her, we really hope she doesn't need one! They are also very happy with how her back has healed. The red area around the scar is like a birth mark, and will fade as she gets older.
