Hey all! So I have some kind of scary news about Miss B. A while ago, they noticed a bump on the top of her head, and it appeared to be growing bigger. They told dad and Jean that it might just be a birth mark, and not to worry about it. Well, this bump kept growing so they finally did an ultrasound on it.
Brielle has something called Vascular Malformation, or abnormal blood vessels connected to the brain. She needs to go to a neurosurgeon to have something done about them, to make them stop growing. I guess less than 1% of people get Vascular Malformation, so again Miss B beats all odds!
On Wednesday, Brielle has to have an MRI. The day before that, she can't eat anything, so it will be a tough day!
Apparently, they have 3 different ways to get to the blood vessels. They can either go through the top of her head with something the size of a pencil lead, go up through an artery in her leg all the way up to her brain, or cut a piece of her skull then put it back and stitch it back up. Poor baby! :(
So we would like to ask everyone to keep Miss B in their thoughts and prayers. I will do more updates on Brielle when I get them! Thanks for reading!!
