After we saw Dr Ray, I took Katriona to see Hedley who is an osteopath. Hedley had never encountered a case of hydrocephalus before and he was astonished at what he was feeling. He described her head as feeling swampy and sluggish. He said that parts of her brain that should be fluid felt like a rock. Towards the end of the appointment, which Katriona mainly slept through, he said that the areas that previously felt like rock did have some 'give'.
I wish we could have seen him earlier, but he was in Vietnam.
I don't think he can fix Katriona, but I am hoping that he can get her in the best shape possible for the surgery. OK, part of me hopes he can fix her, but I think it is too late even if he could.
