A Big Day



So today is the beginning of a long process to finish our journey with Grant's nevus. We decided to move forward with a plastic surgeon here in Indy to complete the reconstruction of Grant's scalp. After we met Dr. Blocksom for a second opinion a couple months ago, we knew it was the best decision for all of us to have it done at St. Vincent Children's and without the expander option.

Grant's surgery is scheduled this morning at 10:30am. Although it's outpatient and seems to be somewhat minor, we are anxious, but hoping for great results. Today will be the first of three surgeries to remove all of the grafted/scar tissue on his scalp and give him a full head of hair again.

If you would, please keep Grant in your prayers today and this weekend as he recovers. I'll be sure to keep you posted!
