Madaghan’s Broken Nose Update

So we went to the doctors with Booty Lou and he looked at it again…NO SURGERY NEEDED!! Sweet!

Booty Lou dodged having a painful procedure due to her nose healing nicely on its own. We as her parental units, could not tell if it is crooked or not, and when the doctor looked at her, he could not really tell either.

 He also told us that if we had the procedure done, it is not 100% effective and she still might have a crooked nose or even a bump.  To sum it all up: We can’t tell if it is crooked, the procedure has the potential to make it worse, and it is not 100% effective equals Maddie Boots not having to go under. 

By the way, it was the nicest exam room I have ever been in:

Sit right in that chair!

 

Good job Booty Louie!


Madaghan’s Almost Broken Nose Update

So Laurie took Maddie to the doctor’s office yesterday for a follow up appointment, and was told that the nose is indeed broken-kinda sorta. He said children’s noses bend, don’t break, but hers still needs to be straightened out. Either we get it done now, or wait until she is older.

We decided to do it now…in fact she is having the surgery on Friday. I do not think I can watch them put the mask over her face to put her under, so I will be out in the waiting room pacing endlessly. Doctor said she only be like a half  hour and bottom line is she will grow up with a straight nose.

Wish us luck!


Maddie’s Almost Broken Nose

We got a phone call from Madaghan’s school on Thursday. Madaghan was running on the playground and bumped heads with another child.  Laurie picked her up from school and took her to the doctor’s office. The xray was negative, it is not broken. How the hell it is not broken is beyond me, but x rays proove it isn’t. The doctors told us it looks alot worse than it actually is and over the next few days, it is going to drip blood and get alot worse looking.
Here are some pictures taken on Saturday:

Boo hoo hoo!

 

Too cool for words.

 

Maddie has a follow up appointment on Monday, and I will not be shocked if they said “Oh, it is broken after all…” I’ll keep ya posted on what the doctor says after tomorrow’s appointment.
