Surgery Day
Much has gone on over the last few weeks and there is much to share so please check back. Today is surgery day.
Rebekah and Daddy will be headed to the hospital in just a few minutes for an early morning check in, a general anesthetic and surgery. All working in her her little mouth will be the anesthesiologist, the dentist and the oral surgeon. At this point we believe the plan to be to remove two adult teeth that are dead and infected under the gums. Given Rebekah's physical state of her jaw due to radiation damage, we cannot be sure that the need won't be far greater or that her jaw won't fracture while working on it.
Basically Rebekah's jaw is brittle and her adult teeth are dead in their original spots due to the large amounts of radiation she received to kill her tumor. We knew we were going to have issues in this area and are blessed that we have been able to avoid them until now.
Please pray that today remains simple and Daddy has the ability (and those around him) to calmly get through the day.
