3 days post op tx #10

Here is how Elliot's spots are looking this morning. He didn't have much swelling this time.

Treatment #10

On Friday April 12th Elliot had his 10th laser treatment. Alisha (my best friend) had an appt at the U of M for her daughter on Thursday so we decided to stay the night in Ann Arbor. Elliot did great again. He lets everyone check him up with no problems. He weighed a little over 35 lbs and was 37 inches tall. This time Dr. Orringer dialed back the joules because of the scanning last treatment. He also avoided the area that scabbed because there is still some scarring there. His next treatment is scheduled for June. It's going to be hard to do it during the summer but we want to get as much done as we can before he starts school in 2014. Here are the pics of before and after.

One of Elliot and mommy, one of him after his Versed kicked in, and then eating Chipotle after we left. :)

Spots are looking good. Sadly he managed to pick off all his scabs. Hopefully the scarring diminishes with future treatments. He is scheduled on the first Friday of March for his next one.

Elliot still has quite a few spots. He has also scabbed in quite a few places. It looks like we will need to turn the laser back down again for the next treatment. He picked off one of the scabs. :( I've been applying a cream to his face at least 3x daily since the treatment, hoping he didn't scab. His next appointment is scheduled for the first Friday in March.

Curled up with mama using his magna-doodle. He says he's drawing prissy, horses, and christmas trees.

Elswliot's cheek was swollen today but his eye didn't swell shut which we are thankful for. He is cuddling mama on the couch watching a show before bed. :-)

Treatment #9

Elliot had his ninth tx today at U of M. He was nervous when we got there but snapped around quickly. Doc said he's looking good and.they bumped him up to 14.25 joules. We.are hoping he dooest scab so we can keep increasing.power and getting great.results. I'm posting a before and after shot. :-)
