HI EVERYBODY
05/11/2008
I just want to make a few things clear in respect of yesteday’s blog. With all the excitement I was not too clear in the conclusion to the blog yesterday. The doctor has thus far confirmed that stem cells are working in baby Shirdesh’s case. We saw the improvement in him. He has also confirmed this and advised that his progress will be gradual. At this point in time we do not know exactly how much vision he has.
He has a few more treatments still to go and we believe that these treatments can only enhance his vision even more. We just have to wait and see.
Once the treatments are completed, further eye tests still has to be done back home by our doctor. We had done an eye test before we left South Africa, we have to do another when we get back. This will determine to what extent baby has recoverred in terms of his vision. We understand that we are to continue these tests over a period of 12 months. The stems cells in his body multiplies and by so doing, helps to increase his vision.
Therefore we still have a long way to go yet with baby Shirdesh and we are still on our knees in prayer.
The next treatment is scheduled for Friday 07/11/08. I will update the blog thereafter.
Love to all in South Africa.
