surgery


Bailee had her surgery on Thursday. Everything went well. Her Dr thought he would need to put in only one metal plate. He ended up putting in four. Evidently the bone was broken worse than he thought. She has stitches underneath her left eyelid, two different areas on her eyelid and a set of stitches in her mouth. She has a stint in each nostril and a bandage/brace on her nose. She's not ready to share any after pictures so we only get to see the before.
She came home Friday around 8. It was a long couple of days. It was a challenge finding the right meds for her but I think we have it figured out. This afternoon she has finally started acting like herself. She is still in pain, but trying to make light of the situation.
We use to think she was a wimp, we were wrong. Bailee, you are soo brave. WE love you!!
