One of my 13 month old twin boys, Bryce, is having his second cleft palate surgery tomorrow at 6am at Kosair. The first one was to connect his lip together in September, and this one is to repair the palate (roof of the mouth) and separate it from his nasal cavity. He is also getting tubes put in at the same time. He finally will be able to eat food without fear of it going up into his nose and form suction with his mouth to drink normally after this surgery. Prayers requested please.
Thanks!

Howdy,
Good luck! It sounds like things should be better shortly and this will hopefully become just a neat story for him to tell his friends in highschool... :-)

UPDATE
Well I guess he knew that he was supposed to have surgery, because this morning he woke us up at 3:45 am and had a fever of 101.1 and threw up 30 min later. We went on to the hospital by 6 am and they said that with a fever he couldn't be put under anesthesia. So now we have to wait to hear back from the doctor's office on when to reschedule the surgery. Hopefully it won't take 2 more months to get a surgery date like this time. Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers!
