Mya was scheduled for surgery with a Dr Bueno in Springfield, Il on 7/29/12. We were so ready to have her palate repaired. We really loved Dr Bueno and his staff! Mya was accepted into the Shriners program in Chicago a week before her already scheduled surgery.
We went to her first appointment at Shriners and let me tell you, they are phenomenal!!! We were in a room for about 2 hours and the whole team came in one by one to talk with us and let us know what to expect. Mya was an absolute joy!!!! Mason and Myles went with us and they were so awesome! They did say, that next time we went, they were not coming...BORED!!!
When we saw the surgeon, they had mentioned that there were 4 surgeons that could possibly be the surgeon to take care of Mya. Thats a little scary, not meeting all of them prior, but I trust Shriners! The surgeon did say that he thought that he would want to redo her lip....WHAT????? We think it looks amazing!!!! He said that it looks like it was done 50 years ago. Now, we have a HUGE decision to make...do the lip or not!!
Another BIG decision was....Keep her already scheduled surgery for July or wait until possibly December to have surgery at Shriners?? So, on the way home, I started making a list of pros and cons..We chose Shriners and I am glad we did! The Lord brought us to them for a reason and I am so excited to see how they will help our little Chinese Princess!!!
Thank you for your support!!!!!!
