Well, on the way to school this morning Braylee started to complain that her head felt weird. So we got to school and I looked and the top of her forehead on her hairline was swollen and very tender to the touch. She said she didn't have a headache, didn't hit her head on anything. I sent her in to show the nurse so she could see if it got any bigger within the hour. I just ended up going back into town to reassess her and determined she needed to be taken for imaging to be on the safe side. She wanted to stay at school until I talked to her surgeon and got everything packed. I sent her surgeon pictures and he agreed that she needed to be seen. We headed out and in the drive Braylee remembered she did hit her head the day before. We decided to keep going because the swelling was so significant just to be in the safe side. We arrived in SLC around 3 pm. Her swelling had increased a little since this morning. She ended up getting blood work drawn and a CT.
Everything came back good on her blood work and the CT showed that it is a hematoma and all of her sinuses looked great. We're so relieved and only Braylee would have a big hematoma from hitting her head. We need to keep a close eye on it and make sure it goes down but we get to go home!! Never been so happy for a hematoma!! Always keeping us on our toes!
