For Alyssa and her mom. May they seek the Lord’s guidance instead of their own.

Great advice and so is Sebastian Hospital!

Orlando Children’s Hospital too.

I did not know Vero was less able to care for emergencies...that is a huge facility...I know people who work there.

This was me at age 13. I have the scars to prove it.

Orthopedic surgeons are varied, and hospitals will only allow certain ones to do certain things. First off is a pediatric orthopedic surgeon. These are rare. (I LIVED in the hospital for the first 6 years of my life constantly under the knife)

Tumors happen, and most tumors (like 90% or something high) are not cancerous. I’m riddled with them. None of them are cancerous.

Tumors are caused by a screwed up DNA strand. Things grow where they shouldn’t grow. It can be any number of things, few of those things are things to worry about, really.

Certain debris can be left alone for debriding. Debriding sand is probably the second most painful experience for a kid. The first would certainly be a spinal tap. But it’s excruciating and it’s lasting. Sand and dirt aren’t necessarily bacteria-riddled and they may have done cleaning without removing all of the sand. That debriding may need her to be knocked out under anesthesia. If that’s the case, a pediatric anesthesiologist is rarer than a pediatric orthopedic doctor.

They’ll need her calm and getting the 24 hour prep for surgery. If you move her that prep starts all over. Emergency surgery is VERY risky without the proper pre-op.. especially for a kid. I woke up during my leg surgery when I was 12 and .. lets just say I remember it.

Stay calm. Talk to people. Allow the staff to pre-op her.

The best hospital at this point would be UF at Gainesville.
Excellent ortho service if bone tumor is suspected.

My niece (the mother) acts like it is just a cut.

The little one will be in my prayers. And please try to make peace with the mother here, even if it's only temporary, and even if you are called all sorts of names by her. Your family needs to work as a team here.

May her Heavenly Father who lovingly formed her in her mother's womb, be her divine Physician, heal her completely and speedily, minimize her pain, discomfort and fears and restore her to her loving family. We ask this in Jesus's Holy Name.

May God bless you and yours!

I can describe a little of what I learned from my recent medical adventures.

Cancer cells are mutated versions of normal human cells. The mutation will cause the cancer cells to grow without any external signal from the rest of the body. Despite the mutation, the cells can be otherwise normal.

In many types of cancer the abnormality causes the cells to proliferate from a single mutated cell into a tumor. As the tumor grows it can also cause the creation of additional arteries, veins, and capillaries in order to provide oxygen and nutrients to the tumor cells.

Now comes the important part.

If cancers are detected early enough, many patients can experience a complete cure by "simply" removing all of the cancer cells. This sometimes requires removing some or all of an organ that contains the tumor and some organs can tolerate partial or complete removal.

The problem is that recurrence of the cancer may happen if only a single cancer cell is left in the body. The removal of a cancerous tumor requires great care to ensure that no cancer cells are spilled from the tumor into the rest of the body.

Now comes another really important part.

Tumors sometimes tend to grow so much and so fast that they outgrow the ability of the circulatory system to keep them alive. This can result in necrosis of the tumor; that is, some of the cells die. The resulting tumor can then become very unstable and likely to shed cells into areas that were otherwise tumor-free.

The upshot of this is that the process of removing a tumor is complicated by the necessity of handling it with great care so as to ensure that every single cancer cell is removed.

I can understand how the risk of disturbing a tumor in a patient might be so high as to postpone treatment for a wound in order to evaluate the tumor and establish optimum conditions for successful surgery to remove it.

I'm not a doctor but I've met a lot of them recently and this is my understanding of the issues I have described.

Thanks for your explanation about pediatric orthopedics. I did not know that. I learned a lot from your post and will pass it on to my sister. I pray my niece has some sort of pain relief meds. As I explained, there is an estrangement from the mother with the rest of us. (Me, her mother and her 2 brothers) We only have contact with Alyssa.

My bones sometimes bruise and temporary knots swell. Been doing that all my life. Perhaps whatever cut her also bruised the bone?
Prayers up for the little lady’s rapid healing and wisdom for her family.
