Playing in the Snow! One Week Post Op!

All in all....Dominicks recovery has gone great! The first couple days were difficult, to say the least, he would not eat anything and had a very hard time on the meds...but after day 3...he was back to normal...YAY! I can see a difference in him already...Dr. Hurst is truly amazing and I am happy and very pleased with his work. I don't think we could ever repay him for what he has done for us...A shining star! Thank you sooooo much. You have changed Dominick's life for the better...We are all sooo grateful!
We went up the mountain today to play in the snow. Dominick didn't like it much, but his brother and our dogs had a blast....here are a few pics of his new nose and lip...we are cleaning him about once or twice a day, depending on his mood. He is still very sore and tender..but man, HE looks soooo good...PERFECT!

  1. Hi, my name's Sissy, Fatima Valentina's mother. She will be operated next week. She also was born like Dominick, bilateral lip and palate.
    Now she's one year and two months. This will be the first surgery because when she was born she has a dificult heart condition. So she was operated of her heart, and we have to wait almost a year so she could gain weight.
    I just read Dominick have been operated from his lip and nose, I was I little concern because my daugther has the same condition that your son, but now that I can see his face I'm sure she will be perfect like him.
    Sorry for my english, I think is not very good.
    I am from Peru and I hope to hear soon about you.
    God bless you Dominick.
