Q: Up date Hole in chest

Well a little bit of light. Seen PS today he took another 100cc out hole got bigger. I do have to have the litis flap. The tissue is so thin that if we try to do any fill-ups after this hole heals Ill be back to square one. The good news is that Ill only miss 2 days of work 1 if I can switch a day with someone. PS said Ill be able to go back to work within a week. The last time i had a litis flap it was on my side that I had radition and tissue died I ended up with a 4in hole I could see my pec muscle and a good view of the expander had to pack it 2xs a day, thats healed. I think I just freaked out cause of all the time off I had the last time. This seems like its going to be ok cause I didnt have radition on my rt side. It looks like were going to do this on Feb 5th. THANK-YOU all for being there.
