New smile #1



Tomorrow we begin the journey of Jack Nathan's cleft repair surgeries. One of many. This first will be a bilateral lip repair. The surgeon will have to "undo" the healed side so he can properly connect the muscle and tissue across the entire upper lip. By this time tomorrow Jack will have a new smile. I have to say we will miss his cute, wide smile. We are looking forward to helping him learn to speak after the initial repairs over the next 6 months.


 

We appreciate all prayers!  Little sweet heart has had a rough surgical history, so we hope he doesn't experience any additional trauma tomorrow.
