Surgery #16 scheduled

Well, we finally have a surgery date for June 9, 2023. In this surgery they plan on going up through her nose and making the hole into her frontal sinus bigger in hopes that everything will be able to drain out when she gets a cold or anything. Right now we think that the hole is just too small and the mucous is so thick that nothing is able to drain and so it just collects up there and eventually turns into a big infection. We really hope that this surgery is the solution and we won't have to go into the next step which is a pretty big surgery. Sucks that we will be starting her summer off with surgery again, but we hope that it's a short recovery.
 We go back on May 23rd for a check up with ID and she has an appointment to meet and talk with the surgeon that day too. She is still the same as she was a week ago with her tenderness in her forehead and the pain in her muscles. I even started marking the area on her forehead to see if it got smaller or bigger. It did get bigger but has stopped and has just been the same for a little while now. We still  don't know what is going on with her muscles, I'm just hoping it is an inflammatory response from her body battling this infection and once we get it all cleared up the muscle pains will go away. But only time will tell on that. 
 She is still being a little rockstar and tonight she did her nasal rinse all by herself!!! 
 There are still 10 days left of school so we are still going hard with all of the end of the year activites.
