Back From Hospital

Good Evening to Everyone: We're back from our trip to L.A. for Sam's surgery. Everything went well, Sam had surgery for strabismus. The doctor cut the upper muscles of both eyes to try and bring them downward (he has already had the side muscles cut). We thought Sam's vision was terrible because every time he tried to read something he would put it right up to his face, but also hold it below his face. That was so he could look upward at what he was reading; which is when his vision is best.
The doctor noticed this when he had Sam read the letter board and Sam would bring his chin down and look up at the letters. His vision was about 20/60 when he looked upward at what he was reading.
Anyways, the doctor was very pleased with how the surgery turned out and is very certain it will help.
Sam impressed every staff member he came in contact with; even a pediatric cardiologist who was there for eye surgery. They couldn't believe how knowledgeable he was about medical things (he has insisted that he is going to be a pediatrician when he grows up) or how many intelligent questions he would ask. I literally had 4 doctors, including his, and every nurse that cared for him mention something about his intelligence or inquisitiveness. One anesthesiologist told me he couldn't keep up with Sam's questions, join the club, doctor.
