We are pleased to report OK-432 is doing its job on Mr. Squishy, and at precisely one week post-op, has doubled Mr. Squishy in size as projected. In the coming days and weeks, we expect Mr. Squishy will deflate as it shrivels up into nothing more than scar tissue. Part of OK-432s magic is that it is helping Trey's body fight the cyst, creating what we anticipate will be insignificant scar-like tissue that prevents new growth of the lymphatic malformation.
It was Sunday morning this week when Mr. Squishy began to show signs of inflammation. It was a day that brought us all relief that OK-432 was working. Thankfully the pain is minimal, and Trey quickly learned how to go about his days without aggravating him. He is one tough and brave ten year old!
We go back to Vanderbilt Children's for his follow-up appointment on Tuesday, June 26. This is when we will learn if an additional procedure is necessary.
Thank you again for all your love, prayers and support.
