We went to see Vance's PS while we were in Ohio last week. After looking at the CT Scan (which he had done on the 3rd with NO sedation:cheer) he recommended having his brow line filled in w/bone paste (Jennifer maybe you could tell me the technincal term for that procedure.) He personally knows our NS down here and is going to call him and let him knows what he thinks. I am not surprised or devestated by this as I was expecting at least this. Once we meet with the NS and he gives us an idea of when he wants to do this I am sure I will start freaking out. Next Wed. we hit the 1 yr post op milestone!! I can't believe it is here all ready. Then Friday he goes in for his ear surgery. I think it is going to take all week just to catch up on everything I missed here! Gotta go put the boys to bed so I can start! Just wanted to give a quick update.

You are in our prayer. I wish you the best of luck. I know how it feels to feel like it is just one thing after another. Try to keep up your spirits. :hugg

I'm not sure of the technical term--- I think it's Frontal Orbital Advancement (that's what they called it on the insurance papers)....Sorry you have to go through it again, but as you know- they are tough.....Emily was only a 24 hour stay (48 recommended though) and by day 3 both eyes were swollen but she was trying to chase her sisters around!! Gotta love em!

Huggs to you! Glad it went well and he didn't need to be sedated- what a champ!
