AR is having surgery tomorrow to remove a cyst in her neck. It's not uncommon for young children to have cysts, so often they go untouched, but this cyst is in the front center of her neck. They're concerned that as it grows it would make it difficult for her to swallow food and/or make it difficult to breathe.
I know I sound overdramatic, but as a mother, that's my job, right? It's a very simple outpatient procedure. I'm not as nervous about the surgery itself as I am about the anesthesia. I find the idea of her being knocked out completely totally overwhelming.
Then there's the biopsy...ugh...the imagination of a worried mother is endless.
I'm sure everything will go smoothly, but keep all crossables crossed for my sweet princess. :)
