Silas continues to rock. 🎸 He did go to the Ophthalmologist on Friday. Basically, the vision is a waiting game. His brain will heal and so will his vision. The doctor did recommend some special glasses which will replace the eyepatch. That will be nice. He should have them by Wednesday. The Atkinson 7 (plusContinue reading “Silas Update #101 (July 3, 9:25 pm)”

Silas had a good day until late afternoon. Then, he started to feel nauseous. He vomited around 6 pm. He has been resting comfortably since. We are hopeful that it is not a big deal.
