JJ and I got situated in the waiting room with a few other families. 20 minutes past and a few surgeons had already come out and told family members how great their kids did and they were in recover, another 10-15 minutes pasted and still no sign of our doctor. After 45 minutes I began to panic!! Finally, after 55 minutes our surgeon appeared and asked us to follow him into a private room. CAN WE SAY PANIC ATTACK!!!
Well... the doctor had good news. Linkin did great and was in recovery, however, the doctor then informed us he had never seen anything like this in his career. The lump had attached itself to Link skull so part of the membrane that covers the skull had to be removed. The lump had also intertwined with Linkins muscle to the muscle had to be rearranged. We still are not sure what the lump was, the doctor sent it to pathology and we go in today to get Linkins stitches removed so I hope we have some answers. The only fear now is if it is malignant we will want to make sure it hasn't spread. Linkin is doing GREAT! He had a lot of bruising but it didn't slow him down too much.
Here are some pics from the hospital!
After recovery!
Right before surgery!
On our way home.
That is one cute little bum.
Right after surgery! You can see his shaved head and the start of the bruising.Aside from that event we have had a lot of fun enjoying HALLOWEEN! Linkin absolutely loves pumpkins!
But he wasn't too happy will all the slime of carving them! He let mom do all the dirty work (He's just like his daddy!)I hope all my friends and family are doing well! I love you all!
