Just wanted to tie up a loose end in case anyone was keeping track. I mentioned a few months ago that we were set to have a surgical consult on September 7 with Eden at Shriner's. That consult got rescheduled to September 14, and we went in fully expecting to schedule a surgery at least for her index finger and middle finger.
What a blessing - we instead were told our little Missy Moo is making excellent progress, and looks MUCH better than she did at her last appointment. They see no reason to rush into surgery right now, because she's not really losing function in her fingers, and the scars are getting softer and softer, slowly but surely. It continues to amaze me that there is so much hope in this situation - God keeps pouring it out on us, day by day, in such unexpected ways!
They did say she will still need surgery on that hand at some point, but just right now, there's no reason to go full steam ahead. We have a follow up appointment in November (they are thinking it might be better for everyone for her to have the surgery before Leah arrives), but we will be seeing a plastic surgeon at that point, which is a step in the right direction from the more acute (not sure if that is the right word...) surgery we were anticipating.
We feel very blessed right now. Just wanted to share. :)
