Foster-mom was told it would get bigger for a year and then would gradually shrink and fade. It did as expected. It is now way smaller in size and projection outwards and is less colorful/visable, child is now 3. It remains uncertain if it will disappear totally in the next few years or if some treatment may be needed later on. <br />While that one was HIGHLY visible due to facial location it did not get rubbed or irritated by clothing or motion, it never bled, and that makes a difference. People would see her in public and go "OUCH what ow-ie!"; her foster-mom tended to find hats and then a hair cut that obscured it. <br />Another consideration in treatment choices was the possibility of a scar of equivalent size if medical intervention was needed. So be sure to ask about that as well.<br />Your specialist will be able to explain all the choices and what the special considerations that would apply with each. <br />As a general remark, for a few years other children by themselves will not react in ugly ways to the difference... that is something learned from adults or older children. So the social aspect of Hattie for now need not be a huge pressure. And, we all need to learn to judge or accept other peoples judgements on our own value and worth as a person. With her parents loving her your daughter will do well. grkangahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00801260375478798016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067490622767117214.post-83824571845062547652012-09-02T10:32:37.999-04:002012-09-02T10:32:37.999-04:00Hattie does need to take a hike!

They chose the steroid route and it shrunk considerably but they also waited until their daughter was 3. Good luck with consultation.
