Maggi Blair - News & Updates

Hi! My name is Maggi Blair. I was born with CRANIOSYNOSTOSIS and was diagnosed at 14 months old with TRISOMY 9 MOISAIC SYNDROME. Today I am saying "mama" and have 7 teeth, with the 8th one coming in. I weigh almost 18lbs and am 28" long! Wow!

MRI & CT SCAN


We were able to schedule Maggi's MRI and CT Scan on the same day at Scottish Rite, so she will only have to be sedated one time.

MRI/CT Scan Date: December 12th @ 11am

The MRI is going to be a view of the Brain w/o Contrast. This will help orthopedics determine if the brain/central nervous system is being affected by the scoliosis.

The CT Scan is for the neursurgeon and plastic surgeon to see how Maggi's skull/brain are shaping and developing since her surgery in August.

Please keep her in your prayers. We are anxious to get this done so that we may learn more about Maggi's progress and scoliosis...also, so we will know what to expect next. She has been very sick with a cold, so we had to reschedule the MRI.

Hope all is well with everyone! We just can't believe the Holidays are approaching so soon! Here is a link to Scottish Rite's website, so you can learn a little bit about scoliosis!
