So many of you were praying for Kennah's surgery on Wednesday, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts! On Tuesday afternoon Dr. Smith's office asked us to arrived at 7 am in the event the big case ahead of us would cancel. If it didn't cancel, we would sit and wait till 1 pm. Our prayers were answered, and Kennah went into surgery at 8 am!
Dr. Smith and his team successfully performed the pharyngeal flap and z-plasty to her lip and nose.
The girl is a rock star!
We are staying ahead of her pain, but she rarely acts like it bothers her, and she doesn't complain about her liquid/soft diet.
We were discharged from ICU at 9:30 am Thursday, and she's recovering in the chaos that we call home.

We have so very much to be thankful for!

precious precious girl! :)
Thanks for the update. I've been checking back...praying. So glad to hear that everything went well!
S had the p-flap nearly a year ago now. Yes, she snored really loudly at first, but it has all but gone away. As for the sounds, the p-flap worked like a dream for our S. If you haven't heard the news, you can read on our blog or NHBO about our big girl's upcoming SOLO (never ever imagined this would happen for her one day when we first began this speech delay journey!).
I hope and pray Miss Kennah continues to heal and those sounds come for her soon.
Praying Kennah's recovery is going beautifully!
Congrats to your family on being DTC!
Blessings, Cindy
