Post a picture of something that has made a huge impact on your life recently.
That would have to be when Hudson, my youngest (age 8), was diagnosed last May with a brain defect, known as a Chiari malformation. We spent weeks and weeks not knowing the severity of such a diagnosis and visiting with different doctors (and getting different opinions). Now, he still has the malformation, but it's only side effect (today, anyway) is headaches/migraines. And he takes medicine for that. He'll be monitored annually, but it's not so much a worry these days.
It was downright scary. That's about all I can say.
Here's a photo of a brain scan. This picture does show a Chiari; but if you don't know what to look for, you won't see it. Sorry.
