MRI Update

Just wanted to update everyone. Max has an MRI scheduled for Monday, February 14th to take a closer look at the little bump on his head. We will be going to OHSU Hospital to have it done because they have a pediatric sedation unit there and Max will have to be sedated for the procedure. His sedation is scheduled for 1:30 and his MRI is at 2:00. One of the hardest parts is going to be that he can't eat for 4 hours before the sedation and for those of you that have met Max, you can appreciate what a struggle that is going to be. The MRI results will determine who we get referred to next. Our doctor feels pretty certain that it's just a dermoid cyst and nothing serious, but because it is on his head, he wants us to get it checked to be sure. Please keep little Max in your thoughts and prayers on Valentine's Day :-)

Stay strong Kim, it is going to be hard for you to keep him hungry for that long and it will be hard to see him sedated. Praying for your little guy.
Give him and Alia my warm hugs.
