The Verdict on Dane

Dane is scheduled for surgery next Monday, November 17. It will be in the morning, probably very early, but we don't have the time yet and won't know until Friday afternoon. They'll confirm the surgical schedule and call us with the time.

He has "Pan sinusitis" which is infection in every sinus cavity. They will be going into every sinus except the frontals, which are very small in children and make the surgery much more dangerous. The doctor is hoping that by clearing drain holes in the ethmoids, which are just below the frontals, the frontals will be able to drain down. Hope he's right.

Dane's very worried and I have lots of planning to do and arrangements to make.
