What are you waiting for?
Found out a week ago that my baby girl has to have surgery on July 17th. She was injured at birth and has what is called Erb's Palsy. Basically her bracial plexus nerve was damaged when they pulled on her too hard after she got stuck. She literally had no ability to move her right arm for the first few months of her life. After a lot of therapy she was able to start moving it. I remember the first day I saw that happened I was so ecstatic i cried! She had therapy up until she was about 3 years old and for someone that knew nothing about her birth injury, she looked fine. However, we recently learned that due to a muscle imbalance if we don't do something now to correct it, when she is in her teens, her shoulder could come out of the socket and it could require extensive surgery! So in this surgery they are going to take some of the strong muscles from the front of her arm/shoulder and transfer to the back of the arm/shoulder. She will be in an arm brace 24/7 for at least 6 weeks. She will be starting kindergarten in this arm brace and I feel so bad! The surgery takes place 5 days before her 5th birthday. I'm nervous as hell but I know she is my lil hellion due to all she has already been through. Just keep us in your thoughts and prayers please!!
Love all my fu-friends!!!
