As has been said here. Sophie has been having issues with this round of expanders. After having her wear a compression bandage all week (with a sock in it for just a little bit of extra pressure) to try to correct her issues. We're having surgery on Tuesday. They are planning on removing the top expander, fixing the cheek expander, and putting in a smaller on in the forehead. The doctor thinks he may be able to get all of the nevus in the hair growing area of her scalp, so this hopefully isn't a total loss, and we'll just have to correct her hairline.
Here's to hoping all goes smooth on Tuesday.
