Neurosurgery appointment, a good news!

So we went to see Jason's neurosurgeon, Dr. Yaun today to consult about Jason's last MRI result; a slight increase in ventricle size.
Dr. Yaun reviewed last MRI and other MRI's and CT's taken previously and she thought everything looked good.  The increase in ventricle size was only 0.5mm to about 2mm but she said this is depending on where we measure.
To her opionion, Jason's ventricle looked almost unchanged compared to the one from August, that's after his last shunt revision.  And Jason doesn't have much symptoms like non-stop vomiting or being a lot fussy, headache etc.
So she assured us that everything is ok.
She saw Jason walking for the first time today and she was very happy about it, too.
She said she would visit Jason at the oncology clinic in about 2 weeks to check on him to make sure that everything is fine.  =)
