An Article About EVAS...the Syndrome the ENT Believes Jaden has...

We got results back from Jaden's CT scans of her inner ears last week. They are sending us to another specialist, an otological neurologist at OSU for further evaluation, but the scans are suggesting that she has EVAS (Enlarged Vestibular Aqueduct Syndrome)

In her case it is a mild enlargement, praise God...but honestly, we don't completely understand it very well yet, and whether the size makes a difference or not...but here is a additional link to more info for those who might be interested: http://www.hearinglosshelp.com/articles/lvas.htm

Please keep Jaden in your prayers, that the doctors will have wisdom and discernment and that God's will will be done in this situation. My prayer would be that God would choose this as a time to heal her completely and that it would forever be a a part of her testimony of God's grace and mercy in her life.

In Love,
Ali
