Random adorableness, the week before surgery.
Waiting for the doctors to tell us it is time to join them in surgery.
Disclaimer: I mentioned in my last blog that she is quite swollen, and her surgical site and steri-strip covering are encrusted in blood; we can't clean them, but rather are instructed to bathe her as normal (water will loosen the gunk) and let everything slough off when it wants to.
We are in the PACU (post-anesthesia care unit). Willow has awoken, but she's miserable and crying (interspersed with sleep).
Leaving PACU, on the way to our room for the night.
After a very long evening, Willow slept for most of the night. Her oxygen levels kept dropping, thus the tube above her head is providing a little boost.
A new day has dawned. Willow is awake and hungry (note the raspberry yogurt on her face).

Looking precious, as she strolls around the hospital halls (waiting to be discharged).
The end.

you are STILL beautiful sweet Willow. Soon you'll be able to blow bubbles, drink from a straw and make new funny noises with your new mouth. Sam can't wait to show you! Carly really misses his cleft lip - but the new one works pretty good.
Welcome home Willow. You did great! Love, Kris * Jake * Carly * Ruby * Sam
