I just wanted to give everyone a quick update on Addison's surgery. She did great! Her surgery took place Monday about 12:30 and she was done around 4:30. Then we were relesed around 1pm on Tuesday.
The Dr. used stiches, glue and steri-strips to help hold her lip together. She also has a bar over her lip taking the pressure off of her lip when she smiles. That will fall off in the next day or two. We can't see much of the repair with all the protection over her lip, but what we can see she looks great.
I will try to post a picture in the next couple of days. Right now she is still pretty bloody and beat up --- with the bar she looks somewhat like a beautiful hannibal lector:-)
Emotionally she has done much better with this surgery. She slept through past two nights with minimal crying. Nothing like the screaming she did last time.
Thank you for all your prayers. I definetely think they worked. We will keep you updated on how things are going.
Oh, I am so glad that things went well. Look forward to the pictures of that beautiful smile. Glad you are all sleeping decent-hopefully that stays the same.
