Re: Jordan's Surgery/.....

[Guest guest]

First on the eyebrow incisions - Micah's surgery was

just 11 months ago and you can't see the eyebrow

incisions unless you REALLY look for them.

Second - Sharon how is ? My Misha had tubes

put in her ears when she was a baby too.

is happy as can be ...it is truly like nothing happened...she is doing great. BUt I tell you one thing at 7 months they are sharp! She knew on the operating table that something was happening. The dr said to me ...as soon as you sat her on the table did you see that look she gave you ...of course i did what any mother would do...i cried. BUt she was out in seconds and the whole procedure took maybe 5 minutes. She is running around in her walker all day...Thanks for all the prayers :-) april Eisele <aprileisele@...> wrote: First on the eyebrow incisions - Micah's surgery wasjust 11 months ago and you can't see the eyebrowincisions unless you REALLY look for them.Second - Sharon how is ?
