Trip to Vanderbilt today

Hello all,
Christy, Dave, Hayden & Mason went to Dr. Pearson's ( he was surgeon that did the last surgery) office today and Dr. Pearson was pleased to see them. He gave Hayden a neurological check up and said everything looked good ( of course little brother wanted to get in on the exam to, exclaiming "Do me, Do me, holding out his arms."). They (Mom & Dad) discussed the next surgery telling Dr. Pearson about Dr. Al Mefty (sp) from Little Rock, Ark. and Dr. Pearson said Dr. AlMefty (sp) is a renowned surgeon in Chordoma tumors and he was very pleased to know that he would be doing the next surgery. He said that he felt very good with Haydens progress to this point and that he can see that there is weakness on Hayden's right side at this time. He also told Mom and Dad that Hayden was going to be in great hands with Dr. Al Mefty so that makes us feel a little more at ease with the Dr. and the surgery. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers and please continue to pray.
