It would be great to compare notes:) > Hi: We live in Newport, TN, which is east of Knoville. I also have one child with BPES, the first in our family. Her name is and she is 4 years old. We take her to Vanderbilt in Nashville. Her surgeon is Dr. Louise Mawn and her eye dr. is on. We love both of them! had her first surgery when she was 9 months old to lift her lids. Another surgery was planned this next summer before she goes to kindergarten. This would be to re-lift the lids and remove some of the excess skin around her eyes. But, just last week, one of the lifts came loose and her left eye is drooping like before she had the surgery. So we are not sure what the next step will be. We have an appt on Aug. 24th with her surgeon. Would like to have someone close by to compare notes to as well. Feel free to email me any time!
