MRI results

Results from Maxim’s MRI brain scan have arrived today. I am no doctor, of course, but I can read English and look at pretty pictures. And from what I’ve understood – everything is OK. There are no anomalities, tumors, or things like that.

We’ll be visiting Dr.Simos in the nearest future (like tomorrow or so) to get a confirmation of our understanding of these results and also to work out the further path.

I’ll keep you posted.

The Christmas tree is up

After two week or so of preparetions, we finally installed the Christmas tree. It took me about two hours to assemble and decorate it. I was doing the manual work, while Olga was giving artistic instructions and adding stylish touches. Maxim was also very helpful by staying out of the way for the whole process.

This year we also bought some lights for the Christmas tree. Since we weren’t looking for anything special, we settled for the cheapest ones in Ermes. They turned out to be very basic – no blinking of any kind, and no colors. Just a bunch of small lights connected to a power cable. Nothing else.

At first, we were disappointed that we didn’t check what was in the package, but when everything was set – we liked it. They turned out to be really good. The tree already had too much and blicking or colors would have been overdoing it.

I’ll post some pictures later this week as I am off to the cinema today…

MRI brain scan is a procedure that is used to diagnose all sorts of internal problems. Most often – brain issues.

Maxim needed MRI brain scan to see if there is anything that pressures his facial nerve. The right side of his face is still not very active and we slowly start worrying about it. Facial nerve problems usually cure themselves between the age of 6 month and 2 years. But it’s always good to be on the safe side.
