A Fresh Start

First of all Thank you to everyone who has been supporting us and been behind us in this horrible nightmare. We truly could not have made it through without your love and support.

Happy Holidays to everyone!

And most importantly Happy New Year!

I decided that instead of doing a Christmas letter or update I would wait until New Year's and update at that point. I want the next year to be better and different and even though we won't completely be out of the CPS nightmare it will be closer to ending. I want all of us to start Fresh. Strong and determined that we won't let this ugly time cloud our decisions or attitudes. So to that affect, I'm giving over all the negativity to the past year and vow to start the new year fresh and renewed and ready to move forward.

Sebastian had, what will hopefully be his last MRI on Friday. All went well and we will meet with the doctors on Thursday to go over the results. The hope is that his brain is recovering well especially now that he's been off the Phenobarbitol. We are also hoping that the fluid that was in his brain has been reabsorbed and continues to shrink. This is important because if the fluid has not shrunk significantly our neurologist wants to have it drained. This despite the fact that the neurosurgeon doesn't believe this is necessary and that the safest course of action is to let the body heal itself. So here's to Sebastian healing himself and us not having to go back to the hospital for a second surgery.

The family news and updates are just that we are all fine. Sebastian is great and you would never know that he had an accident.
CPS meets with us on the 8th of January. Hopefully this will be the last meeting and they will close the case that day. I doubt it. Nothing CPS ever does is timely or on schedule. And especially not with our caseworker. She's a sweet lady but definitely not pulled together.
Anyway, all is well and we are set for a new and better year.
