Mitch's "SERGEry"

******WARNING! THIS BLOG CONTAINS GRAPHIC PHOTOS....*******

I may have quite the baby bump now, but up until Wednesday Mitch had his own bump....



Back in October, we noticed a large bump on the back of his head. It was quite unsightly and made that area of his head bald...not the best for a guy's ego. He went to the doctor, who referred him to a a plastic surgeon, who said that it was a "sebaceous cyst " caused by "folliculitis"....whatever that means...

(Before)



He was put on the list to have it removed and the soonest he could get in was this past week! He had the cyst for so long that it really became apart of him. He even gave it a name-"Serge." A week or so before the cyst was removed he coined the phrase "SERGEry."



(After)

The procedure took about an hour. Apparently there was ALOT of blood. The doctor had a strange sense of humor too because after he was done he said to Mitch, "Well, we didn't let you bleed out!" (NOT FUNNY!) Mitch asked the doctor for a scrub shirt to change into because "my wife will faint if she sees all this blood on my shirt."

We are so glad that this finally happened for Mitch & hope that Serge never returns!
