William has still been suffering from his headaches off and on, so we kept the appointment with the neurosurgeon in Grand Rapids during his first spring break.
The appointment was late in the day, and my mom took charge of the 4 girls so that William and I could venture alone.
He had a quick MRI done, and the technician said that he did very well. The appointment with the neurosurgeon immediately followed.
After taking a look at his scan, he was able to dismiss all of my concerns. He doesn't see any pressure, there is no sign of bleeding or irritation.
So, we still don't know what is causing the headaches, but the neurosurgeon found nothing concerning in the scan.
I've been encouraging him to wear his glasses more often, and the headaches seem to have eased off, at least for now.
Homework is wearing his glasses, and keeping a log any time he has a headache. We will see the neurologist when we go up in April.

Another appointment during his week off was with the dentist.
He was thoroughly enjoying time at home, so he already thought it unfair that his sisters were able to stay home and relax, while he had to go out. And decidedly worse was that he had another set of robot teeth worked up, this time 2 on the top right. He does not like the numbing at all. poor boy.
He has one more round of robot teeth, but not until June, so a little bit of a reprieve for him.
later days
