Isabella's Repaired Cleft Lip

Sorry this is so very late getting posted.  It turns out that Eric ended up having to take Bella to surgery all by his self.  I have been having these horrible debilitating attacks of nausea and couldn't even get out of the bed.  Thank God for a wonderful Husband who took such great care of his daughter and thank God for my Mother who took such great care of Aidan and myself during that time.  To make a long story short, I've got to have a couple test today in checking for an ulcer.  So, we'll see.  Anyways back to the surgery, went really well Bella did phenomenal.  She's absolutely amazing, she came home acting as if nothing had happened.  We used the arm restraints only during nap time and bed time, and she does really well with them.  She's been eating a regular diet and drinking normal, she really hasn't even bothered the lip.  As you can see in the pictures she has a stint in her nose that is to hold it in the correct place and it is stitched to her nose.  Once she gets the stitches out she'll have to continue to wear the stint, but at least we'll just be able to put it in and take it out manually.  I'm so thankful it went so very well and she handled it so very well.
