What? No more injections?

Yep, that's what I said. Just got an e-mail for Angel's surgeon and he stated he doesn't think we need to do any more injections, that there is plenty of skin there to do with what he would like to get done!!!! YAY. So no more injections till our next tissue expansion journey. Yippy!!! Now we just wait another 16 and a half days till surgery, let the skin from today's injections stretch and grow!

Now if we can keep her healthy, that would be good too. We have one child with a cold in this house after only one week in school, ugh. Trying to keep him from coughing or breathing on her and using lots of hand sanitizer. Please pray she remains healthy - these crazy up and down temps are no help.

So there won't be any more posts about how much bigger her expanders are getting but I will post a few more pictures between now and then, as I'm sure the forehead skin will relax quite a bit - my concern is it will relax too much between now and then and get in the way of her eyes.

Once again, praise the Lord and blessings to you all!

Here are some random pictures taken throughout this month.





What a ham. This is one of the days we were using a headband to support the weight of her chin/neck balloon because she had a point at the bottom and the pressure of it was making the skin red. So that is what she has on here.


Sweet dreams precious girl!



She discovered that the bowl fit perfectly on her "bump"

My goodness she is just so cute, I love her smile!
We will keep your family in our thoughts and hope for the surgery to be a great success.

She truly is an angel!!! I love that precious face, and her smile is so full of light. She is such a trooper through it all. :)
