MRI's consulted with
Dr. Dimmitt and the
conclusion is a best case
scenario for his symptoms
third nerve palsy. He
should recover in 1-3
months. Prayers answered.
It was not a stroke,
tumor aneurysm. He
does not have a headache,
and he is looking better.
The triplets are eating
ravenously and still
behaving non-socially.
