Paging Drs. Smith, Jones, King, Leary, and Watson...

The baby is currently seeing or needs to see the following types of doctors:

-Neurosurgeon -Plastic surgeon -Neurologist -Geneticist -Urologist -Ear/Nose/Throat specialist

The most serious problem is that a “suture” between the plates in the front of his skull fused prematurely and can’t grow properly. They’ll need to open it up and insert a piece of donor bone. This doctor has a 0% rate of major complications over 17 years, but it’s still majorly scary.

When they’re done, he’ll be normal and healthy. But this is going to be a very stressful and expensive year. .
