Brain scan is negative

Some good news today! Lourdes had a second ultrasound on her brain last night (the same one that ws inconclusive the previous time) and the results were negative to bleeding. Wow, sometimes what seems like the smallest news can be amazingly gratifying. All I could think about was it's about time we got some positive news! Though, Baby Lourdes was still having other issues to overcome, for the time being we can celebrate this win.

We left the NICU for the first time truly feeling blessed that Lourdes was making progress and the future was going to improve?

Lulu and discussed the results of the "tests" from earlier in the day. She said that the radiologist that did the mammogram and the ultrasound was so very nice, and they when he finished went out of his way to express his feelings of concern for her health. Lulu said that she knew from the look on his face that she indeed knew that she had breast cancer. We cried a while (well I should say that I cried awhile, Lulu just again comforted me as I cried), and then discussed the next step. The radiologist suggested that no later then tomorrow that she was to be seen by a breast cancer specialist.
