You've Come a Long Way, Baby!

Brother has been through a lot. His sweet little face has taken a couple of beatings so far. All in the hope of making him look "normal".

Here he is in November 2008 before his first surgery

Can you see how flat his nose is on the left side?

And the knot of scar tissue in his lip?

With the horrible stint in his nose

And today!

The stint is gone, his nose looks fantastic, and he can breathe without whistling through that tube!

Thank you to everyone who helped us or said a prayer for this little boy. He's doing great! I should have asked to bring the stint home. That thing was about two inches long shoved up in Oliver's nose. I know we're all glad to have it gone, and I hope it's awhile before we have to do this again!
