Opsiclonus Update

I love posting good news to share with everyone who has been so faithful to pray for Max. We had a random eye movement test at Children's in conjunction with UW opthamologists on the 16th.  The opthamologist who had examined Max right after his surgery was so excited to see so much improvement in Max's eyes.  They had Max sit on my lap in a black room and had a dr hold goggles with built in video cameras over Max's eyes to video tape each eye ball.  When we discussed this test to begin with I was told Max just needed to sit still for one hour, but when we got there we were told that his eyeballs and head had to hold still for one hour.  My question is how does a mom control her son's eyeballs?  Luckily, Max's eyes have improved so much we didn't have to endure that torture for a whole hour.  The dr was amazed and  shocked to see the improvement.  The dr's don't know if it is the tumor being removed or all the treatment he is undergoing.   We decided that science is great but it all boils down to God performing a miracle in our little boy.
