Pirate Judah

Judah did great with the eye specialist yesterday...of course! I'm very happy to report that, overall, he has improved in his eye movement and responses. Very encouraging! The only thing that stayed the same from 3 months ago is the weakness in his left eye. The dr. said he's at a critical stage for development now, and is at risk for developing lazy eye. Apparently, because of that weakness, his brain will ignore that eye. Wild. [The human body never ceases to amaze me. Especially Judah's!] For the next month Judah needs to wear an eye patch every day for 2 hours to strengthen his left eye. Then he'll go in for another follow-up. Of course the very first thing Ezra said when he saw Judah with that little patch on was, "Pirate Judah!". I can always count on my kids to see the cute or bright side of things:)
