I met with the surgeon today on my way into work, but still don't really know any details yet.  Argh!  She just looked up my nose and looked at the CT Scan and showed me what she has to do in the surgery.  Pretty much what I already knew though, that she has to cut out the polyps, and cut out tissue to widen some of the passages, but then she also said today she would be breaking and cutting out some of the bones in the passages too to widen them.   EEK!  That sounds gross and not so fun!  But I still don't know when it will be yet.  She said a surgery coordinator will be calling me within a week to schedule it and that they're usually running about a month out.  So maybe end of March or so??  So in the meantime, I'm still stuck on the antibiotic and two different forms of steroid.  :(    It's still just an outpatient procedure though with about 2-4 weeks recovery time, so not too bad as far as surgeries go I suppose.  :) 

Belle is continuing to do well today! Her poor little legs are swollen and bruised today, but they told me this would happen. It looks horribly painful, but she's not letting it stop her! I am in continual amazement at their resilience and pain tolerence. I wish I could be half as brave as this little girl!  So she looks worse and it can't feel good, but she was bright and happy this morning.   (Especially after I gave her the morning's dose of pain killers!)  ;)  Petey has been sniffing her injures non-stop and then sitting quietly next to her, so he totally knows he has to be careful with her and that she can't play right now. I love that boy! 

Ouch!
