Hand surgery

We had our first appointment today with Maeve's hand surgeon. She was a wonderful woman who was very knowledgeable about syndactaly. She explained everything she will be doing and how we can give Maeve the most function and best cosmetic look too. The surgery is planned for 5/15/09, so hopefully we will be able to stick to that. Maeve has an upper respiratory infection right now and she needs to be runny nose free for ~4 weeks prior to anesthesia. We cannot wait to have this done so we will continue to pray for it all to work out.

Hi y'all,
We are Don & Be from Orlando FL and we are the parents of a beautiful little 2.5 year old girl from Hunan, China, placed in our home last July. She has syndactyly & ectodactyly of both hands and 'lobster claw' deformity of the feet (she has a big toe & a little toe on each foot.)
We came across your blog and thought we'd introduce ourselves as we share a similar journey. We have added you to our 'Bloglines' so we'll know whenever you update.
