Christopher’s Journey.

We had an appointment with Mr. E.T. today, the Cranio-Facial surgeon who will be fixing Christopher’s lip and palate. Christopher has been booked in for surgery to correct his cleft lip on September 11th, whilst his palate will be corrected at the end of November (date to be confirmed).

Even though I know that it is best for Christopher to have his lip fixed, not only from a social point of view but from a speech and development aspect too, to be honest, I do feel a little sad, that the little boy I gave birth too, will be forever changed physically. It may seem a little weird to say that, but I love my little man just the way I made him.
