Hi everyone ,
We wanted to give an update we have on Ava. We got a call from the Stollery recently that she has a surgery date! It’s Dec 6th ,2023. This is the Posterior Pharyngeal Flap done by the plastic surgeon at the Stollery. A Posterior Pharyngeal Flap is a surgery done to help correct velopharyngeal dysfunction, or VPD. VPD occurs when the soft palate cannot properly separate the back of the mouth from the nose during speech. We’re excepted to have a 4- 5 day admission stay. We will been seen at the Pre- admission clinic before her surgery date.
Landon and I are both anxious and scared. Surgeries with Ava open many traumatic doors for us from her past history. We pray everything will go smoothly for us and we can be home as soon as possible to recover before Christmas. Ava will be sad to miss most of Decembers school, but we will watch every Christmas movie possible 🎄. We will keep everyone updated once we’re admitted and let you know how she is. Keep Ava in your prayers for her upcoming surgery.
Thank you everyone ❤️
