No more bandages and dressings!! Reese can use her frankensteins next week!!

2nd stage of surgery

January 4, Reese had her next surgery for her bone anchored hearing aids. The surgery took about 2 1/2 hours but she did well again. She was quite annoyed with the bandages this time but we managed to keep them on for 48 hours. After 3 days she was more than ready to go back to school. She had her dressing changed a week later and in the next few weeks she will be able to use the "frankensteins" for her aids - no more headband!!

Christmas 2009

Reese, as always, enjoyed Christmas this year. She had another surgery, her 2nd for her bone anchored bone conduction hearing aid, on January 4. It wasn't as invasive as the last one but she seemed more painful. But the following day she was just fine. The doctor said she can go back to school in a week but I think that mama will lose her mind before then. Maybe after 3 days....
