The past week.

I just felt like I needed to write about what we are currently going through as a family. A week ago Ben went to the eyes doctor because he was having some vision issues in his right eye. He was sent to a specialist. Pictures of his eye showed some nerve issues. Yesterday he had an MRI on his eye and brain. That brain MRI came back with preliminary results pointing towards Multiple Sclerosis. This news has us frozen. We know its not a death sentnece. But at 29 years old, Ben is scared for his future. Especially his future as a father. A father that loves to get down on the floor and plays cars with his son. A father that loves to play baseball and ride bikes with his the boys. What would this diagnosis do to his quality of life? What would the effect be on him mentally? Us mentally? Needless to say we are scared of the unknown. The next step is for him to see a neurologist. Hopefully that will happen this week.
Until then.....we just wait and wonder.
