Most of you probably remember the last surgery, being just inder 2 years ago. (remember this ?)
And its exactly the same thing. Just blocked oil ducts that wont drain. I asked the specialist if it was necessary, hoping i guess, that they could go away on their own over time. She did tell me they aren't life or death, but they can cause vision complications if left. Which left the decision to have them removed as a NO BRAINER.
And although I'm not in love with the idea of having Gracie put under again, I didn't want to be responsible for giving her eye problems down the road, simply because the other option made me uncomfortable. If uncomfortable is even the right word.
Its just a day surgery. very simple and straight forward. Gracie doesn't remember the last visit, and I'm grateful for that. SO she doesn't know whats coming. And I'm grateful for that, too. But her father and I do, and that's what makes a parent lose sleep and worry and basically ages them over night. Ha.
Any parent I'm sure can understand exactly what I mean. And I do know that this is a minor, minor thing, especially compared to what other parents go through. I should be happy that this a is a day surgery and that its fixable. And I guess I am. But I worry. I panic. I stress....
I have a great support system and more people that love Gracie than I can count on all my fingers and toes. That makes all the difference. It really does. But shes my baby.
Anyway, when does this year end? Ugh, it doesn't even matter because her surgery leads into the new year anyhow. But really, a little good news? something? nothing? ok... If we can just make it past January 4th, we'll be ok...
