Eye Appointment

A couple of months ago, we received an anonymous comment on our blog that really freaked me out. I guess I should just attribute it to being a new mom. The comment was about some pictures of Cooper where one of his pupils were white. The comment was talking about that being a sign of cancer of the eye. I was really upset at first that someone would leave a first time mom a comment like that & freak her out. But after the fact, I know that person wasn't trying to be mean, just putting their insight in to help. After researching it on the internet & looking through multiple pictures of the same thing, we decided to call the eye doctor. There was like a 3 month wait to get in, so we pulled a few strings. Michael's financial adviser's wife is our eye doctor so he called him, told him what was going on, & she got us in the next day. Needless to say, Michael & I both were very worried going in. She said from what we described that she thought it might have been a catarach since they were preemies. This was about 2 months ago that we went in the first time & she didn't see anything that she was worried about, but wanted to see him in two months when he could follow things with his eyes a little better so she could get a better look in the back of his eyes. Today was that appointment. She didn't see anything...she said he looked great & wanted to see him when he was about one year. She also had told us to bring Hadley in & she would look her over too since she was also a preemie, but she passed with flying colors too. Michael & I are so relieved & I guess just being overly protective first time parents, but she did say that this could be a sign of a catarach, cancer of the eye, & several other things, so I am glad we got them checked out & that is everything is fine...thank you God for two healthy babies!!!
