Zachs surgery

Just wanted to post a quick update about zach. His surgery was suppose to take 3 hrs, ended up being 6!! I was anxious and worried around the 4th hr. simply out of my mind by the 5th, and ready to come unglued by the 6th!!
Finally the doc came out and said everything went well, just took longer than expected because they wanted to be extra careful with the facial nerves. Plus he had what we thought was a fatty tumor removed from his forehead, in fact it was not! It was a sebaceous cyst. It took doc over an hour just to remove that!!! He said it had grown all the way to his skull and was branching out. Ewww!!! That's gonna leave a mark!!! Doc also said nothing looked suspicious, but they are sending it all off to pathology to be sure. Not sure how long before that comes back.
They also had a heck of a time managing his pain, plus they gave him zofran, we forgot to tell them he reacts badly to that. Didnt know it was a drug they were going to give him. So he was horribly dizzy. After they gave him all the pain Meds that they could, we came home.
He was in tons of pain all night :( we had Vicodin, but he could only take it every 4 hrs. Around 11, I was headed to bed (he had to sleep head up in the recliner), he ended up throwing up for a while. I felt horrible for him. It was all the Meds and no food. But everytime he tried to eat, his salivary glands would kick in overdrive causing him more pain.
Today, we go back to see the doc. Originally, it was to be Friday, but since the cyst on his head was so deep, he wanted to see him today. As for healing time, doc said it would take him around 6 weeks!!! Wow!! And during that time all sorts of fun nerve crap will happen. I'm sure pathology is fine, but as soon as I find out, I'll post it!! Thanks for all the support yesterday! Oh and did I mention, it's dex week!! Ha!!! Fun fun!!
