Clearing up a comment I made when I posted photos of

[Guest guest]

I just wanted to be clear that my comment on believing that we had

done the right thing in waiting for surgeries was in no way intended

to imply that anyone said otherwise. I just meant that many times it

can feel like surgeons, especially cosmetic surgeons, push to do

surgery sooner rather than later. Also, the emotions involved with the

acceptance and self-image of an affected person or a person's affected

child can be very tricky. It's hard not to want to rush in and " fix "

things so that those affected don't have to suffer emotionally.

So I'm sorry if anyone took that comment as anything other than how I

explained above.
