Little Mae is recovering well!!
Mae is recovering well from her surgery to remove the infected tissue from her sinus cavities.
She developed a lot of green discharge from her sinuses earlier in the week, but when the cultures came back, we discovered that she needed a different antibiotic. After three days, her discharge is resolving quite well.
She seems to have a lot of energy (well, a lot for someone who has just had a significant surgery) and is eating very well.
We did get some disturbing news - the tissue removed from her sinuses were biopsied and the report came back that there were some low grade cancer cells within the tissues. There is some discussion about whether the chronic infection caused the cells to become overly reactive or if, in fact, a tumor started all of the inflamation and infection.
I have an appointment with the oncologist (the one treating my Ginger) next week to see what the next step might be for Mae.
Thanks to all of you for concern and love you've sent to this sweet little girl.
Help is still needed for Mae's surgical bill.
