The result of the MRI was worse than we expected. The neurologist is surprised he made it this long and didnt have more severe effects. There is really no good outcome. Even with medication he may live a week to a few months.

We are waiting to hear how he comes out of anestesia and will go pick him up tomorrow.

This is so traumatic for me. My poor baby.

I almost wish this was a liver condition that perhaps would have had a better outcome. A broken leg would have even been better.

thanks for everyones support and help through this.
I am so very sorry

I do not have much insight into NME or GME - but I do recall reading a few threads here on YT about other little ones with the disease, so maybe you can search here on YT for them and get some more info and support from them.

I know you love him dearly and you and your husband a good people, he knows how you care for him and he loves you right back!

We are still here for you no matter what so please keep us posted and our prayers are still there for you.
