We met with the retina specialist yesterday in Hershey. Brandon is still making progress. He was able to see the second to largest line on the eye chart (20/200). Everything else was still good. The retina specialist said the retina was not detached but would like to do surgery on him in 2 weeks to prevent the retina from detaching. She said in injuries like this it is common for a delayed detachment of the retina.
We were not eager to think about another surgery and Brandon is starting to realize that this will mean little summer vacation for him where he can ride bikes, play baseball etc. He has done very well on bedrest, but is starting to feel better and is eager to get back to his normal activities.
We will have a follow-up appointment next week and then in 2 weeks probably another surgery.
Thank you for all of your prayers. We would appreciate your continued prayers. We will do our best to keep you updated as we know more.
