Specialist Appointment
We had Brooklynn’s specialist appointment today. After meeting with the doctor it was decided that she will have out patient surgery September 10th to have the cyst removed from her head. We are lucky it is in a good spot, meaning that there is no major arteries or organs that would be affected. The doctor brought up that if we were to leave it and it get bigger that means a bigger scar and the possibility of needing a plastic surgeon to get involved if there isn’t enough skin to close the incision. Another point the doctor brought up was that if we were to leave it and it was to burst somehow, where ever the cells from the cyst disbursed a new cyst could form. I guess the surgery will be simple and should only take 45 minutes. She gets to come right home afterward. I am glad it is in September, I have time to prepare…..
