Well... my husband is having some minor surgery. A nose job to be exact. Rhinoplasty. Why? Because he can't breathe. It's not actually going to be noticeable from the outside but it's supposed to make a HUGE difference on the inside. Along with the surgery he also has to keep his allergies under control, an issue that has plagued him his entire life. He had allergy testing done when he was younger and had the allergy therapy...blah blah blah. We did another allergy test on Friday and the results were shocking to say the least.... He's literally allergic to everything they test for. Everything. And not just a little allergic either, we're talking severely allergic to most things. They measure on a system of 5 being the lowest you can score to 13 being the highest you can score; my husband scored 13+ on almost everything and a lot of them were off the scale. The surgeon came in to discuss the results and said, "Wow! I've never seen anything like this before!" He broke the office record as the most allergic patient they have ever had. Go big or go home, right? So what do we do now? Well the doctor said that he doesn't feel comfortable recommending the allergy shots because most likely it would send him into anaphylactic shock. So instead he put him on allergy drops, a lower dosage of the things that he's allergic to...immunotherapy. Surgery is scheduled for November, so we'll see if my sweetie can breathe by December.
On another note: Mason had school pictures last week and I always take a few before he leaves for school just in case the school pictures don't turn out. Here's what we captured this year...
