His brother Roger died Jan. 20. Doctors described Rodney's pro- gress in the last two months as excellent, but he still has a long way to go. So far, the top of his brain is pro- tected only by a cover of skin and hair. In another two months or so, surgeons hope to build a hard skull roof of bone, metal or plastic and insert it under the skin cover. The nurses who have cared for him daily say he is as far ad- vanced mentally as any 20-month- old boy. The doctors say it is too early to tell.
