My post titles are so creative and interesting. *sarcasm* So we have been battling this eye for three months now. In the last two weeks it got serious because I talked to the opthamologist and he said that if we didn't get it drained then he wanted to put her under and drain it himself in the OR. No thank you! So we started doing hot compresses three-four times a day. Below is what it looked like before we started the hot compresses. Below here is when it was at it's worse a few hours before it started draining! The hot compresses made it swell much more, it seemed. Until a few days ago it was huge! It spent a few days draining, mainly the most in one day with an hour or so of mama massaging it and really workin' it. Now it seems to be empty! There is still a bump but it feels like a popped bubble wrap bubble. Kind of weird. But no more redness or pain! So here's hoping that we are all fixed up! ; ) And on a Bryse subject but veering away from the eye: we are headed to Kansas City's Children's Hospital on October 23rd for her to have two hernias surgically removed from her stomach. We have had many second opinions and given it much time to heal on it's own and it hasn't. Total we have had two Family Prac docs see it, one pediatrician, one naturepath/ped doc, one surgeon, and two pediatric surgeons. So yeah, we feel pretty good about the choice but still yet anxious about it. I'm thankful it is Bryse. She is my toughy and while she says she's scared I think she will do well. Prayers are welcomed! Peace for her little soul and calmness for mine as well. My parents will be driving up for the day to help me with the other kids.
