We had our ultrasound last Thursday. Kaiden was once again great, waiting almost an hour and a half with me. Once we got in the room, he squirmed a bit at first, but then settled down once we started reading some books. He let the lady do her thing and we were done in about 10 minutes.
We got the call from the dr on Sunday. There are 3 cysts that are about 2 cms in his ear area. So our choices are the same as before...injection then surgery, or vice versa. It's a tough decision. I got a lot of great advice from other moms on facebook, who've gone through similar things and the majority are saying to get the surgery done while he's still young. We can then do an injection on his ear area, if that isn't as successful as we hope, there is a possibility of a second surgery on his that area. I feel like we've prepared for this surgery mentally already, so why not just get it done now. The date is set for March 27th, and we have less than one month until that day.
I dread the thought of leaving my little boy on the operating table and having this done to him, but it's either now or later. I feel like the timing is just right for having this done now. I pray this is the right decision, and there are no complications to his precious smile!
