Recovery

We just talked to the Dr and Mia is now in recovery. It was a long and intense surgery. He said he was able to get some of the cyst's drained. Because of the extensiveness of the vessels in her forehead, it was difficult to work around. They Good news is that Mia should have feeling & movement of her forehead. Also they did not put in a drain because he felt they didn't need it plus it would a lot for a 4 year old to deal with taking it out and then redressing her forehead. The Dr also used stitches that he used will be absorbed vs. using staples or something that would need to be removed. As far as we've been told, the has a bandage on her head that should keep pressure on her incision and help heal. We are anxiously waiting to she her. I'll post again later tonite with more details and hopefully a picture.
