Jake's First Surgery

4am is Too Early!

Jake is out of surgery and sleeping peacefully. The surgery went well, although they were not able to do the full lip repair as we had hoped. There was not enough lip tissue to bridge the gap (which is pretty wide!) so they had to do just a partial lip adhesion. We'll have to bring him back in later to get his lip worked on again. Not what we were hoping for, but not really a surprise. Today has been hard on all of us - we're exhausted. On top of everything else, we had to get up at 4am! But, for the moment, things are peaceful. I think I'll take a cue from Jake and just take a nap.
