More bad news...Tate's Eye Exam #3

I just wanted to let you know how today went. In the last three months Tate's eye has gotten a lot worse. There are a lot of calcium deposits which could be from retinoblastoma (cancer). Tate will be having a MRI on Tuesday (it was on the 15th but they have moved it up) to look for any tumors and to take a better look at his optic nerves to make sure they are the same. No matter the findings, Tate will have surgery. The retina is damaged beyond repair and it will soon start to cause him pain because of the excess fluid in there. Tate has no idea yet and has recovered today better than the two times before. I have a lot of hope and I know that our Heavenly Father will not give us more than we can handle or that Tate can handle. We love you and appreciate all your love and support.
