Dr. De Fina Consult

As most of you know, today was the phone consult with Dr. De Fina.  Mom says he was easy to talk to, and let them do a lot of the talking.  He was very interested in what they had to say about Timmy.  He shared the same hopes and concerns for Timmy, which is nice since most doctors we have talked to haven't been very hopeful.
We have agreed to have a team sent out to run tests and evaluate Timmy.  There is a lot of terminology we couldn't write down fast enough, but there are several tests he has decided to run.  It will take several hours, and we will have to kidnap Timmy and bring him home for the day since his insurance is weird. The team will come, and then we will have another phone consult once they go back and discuss everything.  We are just excited to finally know what's going on inside of Timmy's head since he hasn't had any scans or tests done since about a month after his accident.
When my mom asked him what his opinion was based on what he has seen so far with Timmy's records, he said "Yes, it was a very severe injury, but they have helped worse" :)
Today we also found out that we get to go on the field for batting practice at the Giants game this Sunday!  When mom told Timmy he got a big huge smile on his face!  We are so excited for this Sunday, it's going to be so much fun! We will make sure to take a lot of pictures and post them on the site.
