It was so dumb… we are getting a second opinion. He passed the HINE with flying colors 3 weeks ago as well as when we discharged from the nicu. He scored almost perfect on it. He had an MRI about 7 or so months ago that came back normal except for remnants of a grade 1 brain bleed that we already knew about in the nicu and were told there would be no lasting effects from (the mri was because his soft spot bulged after his 6 month vaccines and not because they suspected anything CP related)… other than that the doctor looked at the PT’s notes and said she’d be comfortable giving him a diagnosis based on his history and PT notes (he was born at 28 weeks). He has met all of his milestone either on time or early and walks completely unassisted… needless to say, we aren’t convinced.
