I think most of you know that we saw a new surgeon back in November and he told us good and negative things:
Good things:
Miller can have a surgery to help reduce the pain in his leg and may only have to have this done every 5 to 15 years depending on how well everything go's the first time.
Negative things:
Miller will have to be in the hospital for 1 to 2 nights in ICU at UAB.
Miller is VERY small for his age (witch we already new that)!
Millers leg is not getting the blood flow that is needs for the leg to grow or work the way it needs.
Miller has one leg shorter then the other but not enough to worry about at this moment.
These are just a few things we have learned good and bad as you read you saw there were more bad then good! But Nick and I know God is in control and will guide us in the direction we need to take to get miller better. When we went to meat this new Dr. I was excited but very nerves just because its the unknown to what they have to say about the whole thing. The last one we meat with brushed us off and never contacted us again very upsetting. When I told Millers oncologist he sent us to this new Dr. Dr. Taylor is a Very Nice man the best part of the appointment (well there were several) was that he said the only one that knows the out come is God I think I was in shock just to hear those words because its not everyday you have a Dr bring the lord into his appointment. He also has three small children around millers age and used them several times as examples and of course that makes a momma feel so good. He told us that he would like us to monitor miller for the month of Dec and if he complains more then once a week then it would be in the best interest of Miller to go ahead with the surgery if not then he would like us to wait till he is a little older to do anything. Well threw the month I have written EVERYTHING down and BOY he complains more then I thought the least amount was 3 times a week so now Nick and I have to make a choice on when to have this done. Of course Dr. Taylor has to get a team together to work with him so this may take a while as does everything else with UAB. Oh don't get me wrong I LOVE UAB But when it comes to children they are kinda stand off a little. But with the tumor Miller has Children's is out of the question they will not see us. So with that said we will pray and wait for the perfect team to be put together for Miller.
Thanks for reading
