Bradley's Bump

Bradley has a big bump on his left eyebrow that is about the size of a nickel. It goes back and forth on how big it is and it worries the doctors up here in the Chico area.
We have an appointment scheduled this week at UC Davis to see a Pediatric Plastic Surgeon for a pre- op appointment. This could last anywhere from 2-4 hours. They fear that the bump might keep growing and either push his eye or cover it. He has to be under general anesthesia to get it removed and we will schedule that after we talk to the dr this week.

He already has really pronounced brow bone so it looks like its on both sides almost. We don't know what caused it and he didn't bump his head. We were asked that at every dr appointment for about 6 months until we moved to a new DR. It first appeared around 9 months.


This picture was taken on the 4th of July before we cut his hair. Its even more noticeable now that he has a buzz cut.


Michelle McConkey, a friend from our ward, is going to watch Kiersten for us so we don't have to bring her with us for the very long appointment. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I will update everyone after our appointment this week.
