McMaster appointment today

So today we had another appointment with the cleft plastic surgeon. Miss Diva's palate isn't long enough to reach the back of the throat to stop the air from escaping out her nose. She needs another surgery.

How do they do this? Well, what's going to happen is they will take tissue from the back of the throat and stitch it into the existing palate. The surgery will look something like this

Jason and I are a little scared that she is going to sounds completely different. I hope this is sooner rather than later. She was nervous today, I told her that they weren't doing anything today but just looking in her mouth. It was great to have her see other children in the 3V1 clinic today they "look" like her and are going through the same thing.
