We took Maddox yesterday to SHriner's for his 2nd week check up on his hand. He is doing very well. They don't think skin grafting is going to happen.
There is one spot that is a little darker and more burned on the back side of his wrist that if it were bigger, they woudl consider grafting, but it's so small, they think it might just look like a scar at the most. Great news.
Carson has been such a big brother thorugh all this. Every time I clean Maddox up, Carson says "Don't hurt my brother mama". He does't like seeing his boo boo as he thinks it hurts him.
We need to go back in one month for another check up.
We need to put lotion on him 2x a day after cleaning him with dial soap and after one month, hopefully, his color shoudl be back to normal. No more red. They did tell us if his hair is reddish at all, it would take a litlte longer than one month to get back to normal.
We need to keep 30 + sunscreen on him anytime we're in the sun. Any kind of sun to his hand or burns will cause permanent discoloration for him, so it's very important that we keep his sunscreen on him daily.
He's doing well and carson is also. Thanks for the prayers. THey have been answered.
