Bye bye bump.



Wade was in surgery for 2 hours and 10 minutes. His surgeon reports that it went it exactly as he hoped and expected. He said there we no complications and he is now in recovery on some serious narcotic pain medication that the nurses refuse to share with his parents.

As you can see, he has a bandage on his upper lip, but the transformation of his face is already pretty obvious. He has arm restraints that he made need for as long as three weeks (yikes) to keep him from messing with his stitches, lip, etc.

He woke up and was pretty darn unhappy but the pain medication seems to have solved that problem for now.

Thanks to everyone for thoughts and prayers. We are absolutely thrilled!

Aww. He has grown since the last time we saw him, and his hair has grown out! Brave Wade. We are thinking of you tonight.
