Three months Post Op

So it has been a little over three months since her surgery and things are looking well. Her scar has healed well, but it has started to spread like the doctor advised might happen. When the expanders are removed and the skin is stitched together the skin naturally wants to pull back into its original place which causes the scar to widen. We are watching the area and will address it later on, if ever. From her last check up with the surgeon everything looks good and he doesn’t even want to discuss options or do any kind of surgery for at least a year. This will give her a break from the hospital and surgery procedures. We are thankful that the “big” surgery is completed and we can discuss possible further options at a later date. We are thankful that she will be able to start school next year and will have some sense of normalcy. Praise God.
