Seeing Clearly


Decota had another appointment with her eye specialist today. Everything is looking GREAT! For some reason her pressure was up again to a 22, but after running several tests he did not seem to be concerned about it. He said her eye was quiet and looked perfect, what does that mean: no inflammation cells to speak of. Her vision has been back to 20/20 since May. Her methotrexate has been dropped down a level since July. She seems to be doing great and on the downhill side of things. We are hoping to be able to keep her healthy, her stress levels down, and have a good report in November. We will go to her eye Dr in the morning, and the hospital that same afternoon, so we are very hopeful that we will have a good report and be able to decrease it down another level then. Between now and November are very critical months. If she stays stable she is most likely going into remission and we have combated most of the inflammation cells. We both have our hopes up. We both feel very positive. I just hope we don't have any set backs, but if we do we will survive. For now we wont even think about that, and we will just celebrate how far we have come. Barely any vision back to 20/20! Once again Decota is my miracle child :)

YEAH!!! We are so happy to hear that and will keep her in our prayers. Give her a big hug and kiss for us and tell her congrats. Don't forget to tell Cambria that we are so happy her asthma hasn't been an issue too. :)
