Not as in the clear as we thought

So today we had Caleb's neurosurgery appt. It was just supposed to be a follow up from his last appt 3 months ago.... you know, hey how you doing? oh he looks great, right on track, now go home and don't come back. well not so much. They did a 3d image of his head, compared it to his last one 3 months ago, and decided his head is getting worse rather than better. The dr said his head should be at an almost 'normal' shape by now, but instead he has formed a flat spot at the crown of his head and a bulge at the base.... so now we have an appt on Aug. 8th in the morning to get a CT scan done (poor fella is going to have to be sedated :( ), then at 1 that afternoon we are meeting with the neurosurgeon and the plastic surgeon who will be doing the surgery if that's what they decide is needed during our consultation. So if you're reading this and have a close relationship to the man upstairs, I ask that you put in a small prayer for Caleb that all turns out okay and he doesn't have to have this surgery.
