We had Allie's appointment with the craniofacial surgeon in Dallas on Friday. It was a great meeting and he had nothing but fantastic news for us! I believe his exact words were, "There is absolutely no way this child should ever have surgery for this condition."
He was able to dispel the misinformation that we were given by the first doctor and calm many of our fears. He said that the ridge should be gone by the time she is 6 years old and that she is not at any increased risk of seizures, strokes or learning disabilities, as the first doctor had indicated. I'm frustrated that the first doctor gave me such false information and made me worry for so many weeks over nothing but couldn't have asked for a better outcome.
Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers over the last few months. We really appreciate all of the support!
