Minor Procedure Soon

The ride to the plastic surgeon's office this morning went well.  Praise God.  The one-centimeter thin area on the scalp scar is fine for now but vulnerable.  If it breaks down, the implant can easily get infected necessitating removal of the implant and leaving it out for several months.  The surgeon recommended scar revision and possible alloderm graft reinforcement within the next two to three weeks.  We've asked the surgeon to proceed as soon as he has an opening.  The nurse will call us with the details.  It will either be an outpatient procedure or a one-night stay.  Prayers are appreciated. 💗🙏

12/12/23 Update

 Today is Mia's 16th birthday.  The three of us went shopping for clothes for her yesterday.  It was the first time in over two years that Rie shopped without a wheelchair, using just a standard quad walker.   It almost felt like a normal pre-stroke shopping day, including the backache I used to get whenever we went shopping for clothes! Praise God. ❤️🙏
