Date with Dr. Siomin!

WAKE UP SLEEPY HEAD!! Jessy woke up bright and early today to go see her neurosurgeon Dr. Siomin. They discussed different things about her ear and eye. Jessy can't hear through her left ear because of the trauma from the tumor. Dr. Siomin suggested she go see an ear specialist (not sure what they call those). She has to get that done ASAP so she can be able to hear through that ear again. He also told Mary (Jessy's mom) that it is very important to continue with the treatment on her eye. Applying the eye drops and leaving the patch on her eye is the only way the eye will heal so it doesn't have to be stitched for two weeks!

Keep in mind people, the tumor in her brain was very big, so removing it caused a lot of damage to her brain which is why her left side is the way it is right now. The electric shocks to her face she receives in therapy is what is helping her gain the feeling to her face. Hopefully her eye, ear and hand all fall into place right after!! :)

They also removed that extra stitch that was left on her scar! Dr. Siomin was able to remove some of the flakes on her head and suggested she could use baby oil to remove them on her own. He also mentioned she can use any shampoo or hair product on the scar and it won't be affected.

Stay tuned for more info on the exercises Jessy will be doing at home over the weekend! She doesn't stop her therapies even when she's at home.. That's what we call dedication! :)
