Babies Return For Post-Op Visit

Today the babies returned for their post-op visit.

It was not my best camera day but all of the babies were healthy.

This is Brayon and he is doing well.  He has been eating and actually gained some weight after surgery. Many thanks to Angie for sponsoring Brayon's surgery.

Dilan was also doing well.  He has been eating and has not had any problems.  Thank you, Ava for sponsoring Dilan's surgery!

Nelson and his mom are doing well.  Nelson was sponsored by Beverly and Doris.......thank you!!

Santiago was sponsored by Frank and Evelyn.  Thank you!  All of these parents know to return in November so we can start working on their palate surgery in February of 2019.  That seems so long away but it will arrive quickly.  They will have grown so much and we will see much improvement.

Today, Sharon was with us and she is a speech therapist.  She is developing a program to help children with their speech, especially those who have had the cleft-lip and palate surgery.
She quickly became friends with Santiago and we walked over to Noe's area, where he does physical therapy. When Sharon saw Santiago quickly use his thumb, she followed suit!

Noe has a lot of toys and prompts that help with physical therapy.  Sharon and Santiago made themselves at home and started playing.  Sharon was able to give Santiago's parents some suggestions and things to work on with Santiago when they are home.

We plan on Sharon returning to be with us in August and hope to have a larger population of children to work with.  What a blessing she and this program will be to the patients and their families.
Thank you, Sharon!

This is Aida before she left Montellano.  I failed to get a new photo of her.  She had a thumb cyst removed and today, I took out her stitches.  She is doing very well and we are thankful for that.  Thank you Ava, for also offering to sponsor Aida's surgery!

Tomorrow, I will work on getting more photos of the Harding students.  They will be with us for a week of clinics and we will have 2-3 different clinics each day. They are a great group of students who always come prepared and are led by Gary, who does a great job with them every year!
