Kade will be having surgery again. There is a lot of fluid build up in the area that he had his surgery last week and it's not going away. The doctor aspirated three syringes of fluid from the area on Sunday and it's just as puffed up and swollen today as it was before he did that. Basically, something is "leaking" and he has to go in and fix it.
The area that is swollen is the area of skin the doctor pulled back to remove the cysts and the fluid is causing his skin to not be able to reattach itself, therefore creating the perfect pocket of space for it to fill....
He'll open the incision up again, drain it, see if he can see what is leaking, put a tissue glue in there to prevent future leaks and sew him back up. It should be a lot faster than his last procedure and then we'll be finished with it. Hopefully.
The doctor is going to do everything possible to do it tomorrow. But for sure they'll be doing it by Monday. It's just a matter of finding an open spot in his surgical schedule.
That's all for now.
Oh also, our internet is down. Yipee. I'm borrowing the hospital's. Good stuff. So there's lots I have to post on this blog and others but wont be able to do it until at least tonight. For example: a picture of Kade's neck. Stay tuned.
