The neuro testing that was done raised a few concerns over Sierra's health. While he still thinks the tumor is probably stable, there are some changes seen in the neurological assessment.
1. One pupil is larger than the other. Not sure what is causing that. Could be from the original tumor, or it could be something different, or it could be nothing at all.
2. Her balance was a bit off. Had a hard time keeping her balance while walking with one foot in front of the other. (like on a balance beam).
and 3. had a harder time tracking--touching her finger to her nose, then to his finger as he moved it around in different distances and heights.
All things that probably wouldn't be much of a concern in most patients, but because she has had the tumor, and her symptoms of migraines and dizziness have come back on intensely and quickly, he wants her to have an MRI as soon as possible. She is also to see the neurosurgeon, and then back to him. All those appointments coming up. Lots of traveling again for a bit.
Friday night was the Reno Ronald McDonald House Charities Red Shoe Gala. The kids were performing, and have been practicing for months. While they've done performances in the past, they've never performed to crowds this size. (And the little ones first time performing at all!)
It was a beautiful night, and the kids did great! Attaching some recent pics and videos from the past week.
Hope everyone is doing well! Thanks for the continued prayers!
The video is an interview we did about a month ago. Watch till the very end!
A little dress up fun.
"I'm a princess, Mommy!!"
Sierra was feeling well enough to go to her first Home Coming! So thankful.
Loving the snow!

Star treatment before performance.
Princess and little Spider Man with Mrs. Rachel. Rachel made the night possible, and made it so special for the whole family. We are truly thankful for all that she does.
I wasn't able to get very much clip on my camera of the actual performance, but here's a piece of it. (We will get more video later from the event)
