Henry's Surgery

Henry has had this dermoid cyst on his eye (look at the end of his eyebrow-right side) for several months. It grew bigger for a while and them seemed to stay the same. I have taken him to the Dr at least 3 times just to have it looked at only to be told it was fine, it is just a cosmetic thing, we will see about it later when he is a little older, etc...
No one ever mentioned that it could rupture! So when he started walking and of course falling down more, it did just that and ruptureed. We don't know exactly when, I just noticed that is looked much different. Not the usual marble under the skin look, more spread out and hanging down over his eye. (I took this picture after he enjoyed feeding himself watermelon)
So in Aug 5 a pediatric opthamologist cosmetic and reconstructive surgeon(I didn't know there was such a thing) took it off during an outpatient procedure. This is right after we got home. He was ready to eat of course. He did great and the surgery/anesthesia didn't seem to bother him at all. He did sleep that day from 11am-4pm.
This was day 2. Looking good and still has his appetite. This boy loves to eat and will eat anything, Ilove it!
