Bright and early Wednesday morning, Will, my husband Dan and I will travel to our
nearby children's hospital that's in Madison.
Will is having a rhinoplasty of the tip of his nose (in layman's terms that's nose surgery.)
With yearly visits to our cleft team, we're following the recommendation of his surgeon.
She feels that as he's growing older, the tip is starting to point down.
I did ask that she keep the integrity of his beautiful Asian nose.
We know he'll have a few more surgeries in the years ahead related to his cleft.

The ENT doctor will be checking Will's ears and replace tubes if necessary.
Will is also having cavities filled by our ped dentist and some other dental work.
We're happy this will be only a one night stay and
Dan and I are staying with our little boy the entire time.
Post-op, he'll be receiving some surprises (a couple of new toys)
and ad lib amounts of TLC and snuggle time.

Please keep Will and his medical team in your thoughts and prayers Wednesday.
I have great confidence in these caring people and trust his wonderful surgeon implicitly.

A very big day for your little boy. Will be thinking of you and praying for you. If it's truly a wordless Wednesday, we'll know you're too busy holding your baby.

Your son is beautiful! Was his lip repaired in China? We just brought our DD home 2 weeks ago and she has un-repaired CL/CP. Her first surgery is scheduled for August, I can only pray her results are as stunning as your son's! I will be praying for him!
Praying for Will. He is so handsome.

noticed someone else made a comment about will's aqua shirt... funny because aqua has recently become my favorite color on our little sprout too. :)
He will be in our prayers!! I know how scary it is to have a child in surgery, but I know he is in good hands!! He's a beautiful little guy!!

He is a strong little boy and I know he is going to do just fine! Try to hang in there Gail.... it is so difficult to have to watch our little ones go through something like this.....but I am sure he is in marvelous hands with your surgeon.

I will be keeping your sweet boy in my prayers.
Our daughter, Shea was born with a cleft lip and palate. She has had a handful of surgeries....
This year may be a big one for her concerning more surgeries....sigh.
So, I know where you are coming from.
I love the picture of your son. He is very handsome. :)
I love these photos of you beautiful Will. I will definitely be praying for his surgeries and that his recovery is speedy.
Sending lots of hugs & prayers,
