A BIG Hurrah!

Yesterday I took Nathan to see Dr. Siddiqi who performed Nathan's 5 (yes 5!) cleft surgeries. Nathan's mouth is healing very nicely from his final repair and we will need to follow up with Dr. Siddiqi only once this fall in the craniofacial clinic and then on a YEARLY basis after that to watch for Nathan's speech development. That's 3 doctors in the last month and a half that have said see you in a year! I can't even tell you what that means to me for taking off of work and that it shows Nathan is making huge progress!

Now we're just waiting patiently for Nathan's next surgery in June...

Awesome! Finally being able to go to the doctors and them not coming up with a zillion other things that are wrong. This is good news! And yes, Nathan is making progress.
