Another Bump in the Road

   So we finally got an appointment for neurology. It was set for March 12th @ 9:30. Now my doctor said the first available MRI time is March 12th at 1:30. Now they want me to try and reschedule the appointment for the neuro that took me six weeks to get! Can we say frustrating.  On top of that of course I try and make another appointment and no one ever answers or returns my calls. So now we are scheduled for MRI on March 12th. We are on the cancelation list for this too. Maybe we will be blessed with an earlier date. My doctor nor I have been able to contact the neuro yet.  Ugh! We need MRI to take to neuro so MRI must come first. Everyone has been dragging tail on this and I am one upset mama but I've given it to God and refuse to stress.
    On another note Ezra worked extremely hard in therapy today and if I can figure out how to upload pics an video I will. I was so proud of him today :)
    Please continue to pray that all these complications be worked out. Praying for his right side to strengthen.  Also pray for me. Thanks and I appreciate those of you who are keeping up with us and lifting us up I  prayer.

Another Step in the Journey

         We were referred to a pediatric orthopedic Dr he was awesome. The good news is he didn't find anything.  No scoliosis and no hip dysplasia.  Yes this can happen in people as well as dogs. He says that going to the neurologist is the next step in our process. He also said if we get referred to a genetic specialist to keep him in mind. A lot of times they want to do a muscle biopsy and he would be happy to help.
       It is a relief that everything looks normal with his bones. Now we are still waiting with no word from the neurologist.  It is over a month with one missed call and five unreturned phone calls. I have left a message every week and no response. How could this be? Do these people have children of their own? I know that I am not in control and God is teaching me patience through this.  As a mother I want my answers now.
       Through this waiting God is giving me peace that no matter what the outcome or diagnosis may be Ezra is special. Not just in his uniqueness but God has divinely placed His hand on this child and has a great purpose for Him. The devil would love to see him and us defeated but we will not be. My God always wins and He is going to heal Ezra for His glory.  Whether that be tomorrow or be a life long healing I have the confidence and peace that God is in control no matter what.
