Saturday, I received a written report from Addie's geneticists summarizing the dismissal of her secondary diagnosis. Along with that, I was told a few things that I should expect for her:
"she will have relatively normal development the first year, but then will develop moderate handicaps;
she will walk between 18-21 months and
she will develop some language"
Well, I guess I can quit worrying about the future, it was just laid out for me... I cried when I read the letter and then by Sunday became angry. I can't believe that they would try to pinpoint Addie's development based on an MRI and immediately classify her. To top that off, one of the geneticists emailed me and asked if I would bring Addie back in two to three months so that we can "talk about it"...
I want to refer back to this post over time just to remind myself how we proved them all wrong. She WILL surpass all odds.
How a diagnosis of Microcephaly changed the lives of so many people.
