Well, Allison has made it through her first day with her expander in, it is similar to this one. The application took about 90 minutes. I have to say she was a real trooper. A few times I squirmed in my seat and even started to cry. (Of course unknown to her)
Now we just have to get through turning it three times a day for the next five days. It’s a little harder to do then I expected, emotionally. Even though I know it is what is best for her. The look on her face as I turn it, knowing how bad it hurts just breaks my heart.

It is so hard to see kids go through anything that could hurt them. I’m glad she’s dealing with it so well, it’s good she didn’t see you cry. *HUGS* to you!

Hubby had that procedure done a few years back and I know exactly what you mean when you describe what it’s like to see them suffer through it. At least she’s having it done while she’s young and able to bounce back from it.
