surgery day

january 11, 2009 was a big day for the frank family...our little man had surgery to repair a partial unilateral cleft lip...it was an intense experience...we are grateful that it was as minor as a cleft lip...we arrived at the hospital around 9:30am and got registered...they took us back into a room in the pre-op area...

He's beautiful (before and after surgery)! I'm glad it went well. Our son has a bilateral complete cleft lip and palate. His first surgery is this Friday. I hope it goes as well.
