A Healthy Brain

When Hilary was diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia in July, the neurologist said it was unusual to see this disease in a young person. Often times when it does show up in a young person, it is associated with MS. So, he wanted Hilary to have a special dye test/MRI to determine if she had MS. The test was scheduled but, much to my displeasure, it was a month away. Then the neurologist had to go to India for a family emergency, so the test was postponed until the end of September.

All that to say that this "not knowing" has been hanging over our heads since July. Well, I am sooooooo happy to report that we saw the neurologist last week and looked at many, many pictures of Hilary's brain!! The final result: Hilary has a healthy brain!!! NO MS!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!! There was much rejoicing in the Jones' household this weekend!

  2. Praise God. She not only has a healthy brain she has a smart brain as well. Hilary is still in my prayers that they would find something to help the jaw pain.
