Treatment 20, Post-op Day 1

Elliot slept like a rock last night. He's usually awake mid-way through my shift (I teach ESL online) and today he slept through all of my classes until 10am! He woke up extremely swollen, which we were prepared for. He's currently holding a bag of frozen corn on his eye to open it a little more. This is another solid treatment by Dr. Orringer, and I'm pleased to see that he went heavy on his lower cheek. That's always been the most stubborn area. Oh, and we're still rocking that pony spout. ;)

One more week

Just a quick update. Elliot's next laser treatment is next Friday. That will be treatment #3. I'm so anxious about it I can't stand it. It's bothering me because he's older this time, and I don't want him to be afraid. I know he won't want to go with the anesthesiologist but I'm not allowed to go back. I just pray that he isn't scared. If he doesn't react well then we will have to do the "amnesia cocktail" next time, something I don't want to have to do. Hopefully all goes well and he doesn't swell to badly.

Also, he went to the eye doctor last week. His pressures were in the normal range but just barely. We go back in three months for a recheck. Hopefully it's lower next time.

I'll be back next weekend!
