Off to the ENT...

Had a follow-up appointment at the dr. today so see how Julia's broken nose is healing. When asked how her nose feels she says "it is still hurting, but not bad enough for a boo-boo bear". She is being a real trooper, she has not really complained about it.

The dr. looked her nose over and came to the same conclusion I did.... It looks to be healing crooked!

So we have an appointment to see an ENT on Tuesday morning and if she needs a procedure down to fix it, that will be done on Wednesday. Wednesday will be 9 days post break and still within the window of being able to fix it.

We thought that if they ENT said it does not affect her breathing that maybe we would not get it fixed.(Just so we would not have to put Julia through a painful procedure.) But then someone pointed out that 16 yr old Julia will care greatly if her nose is crooked. It would have not bothered me at 16, but Julia is becoming something of a diva, so I think a crooked nose will bother her.
