Dr appointment



Well, we met with a surgeon yesterday. He was very positive about Jailyn's prognosis. He wants to wait until the end of April/beginning of May to do the first surgery. The first surgery would consist of putting her palate together, fixing her lip and possible tubes in her ears. We really like the surgeon and his office. There is only one hurdle. Insurance. All of the Craniofacial Dr's in the Dallas area are merging their insurance contracts together - so presently they are all in limbo with insurance. We need prayers that this will all work out and coverage will be good. We were told that the surgery (not including anesthesia) runs $12,000. ouch! lots of prayers are needed concerning this!

Jailyn had her first taste of donuts today - yummy! they melted in her mouth!
We are off to the mall today with some other little friends and my friend Cindy.

Thanks for all of your concern and prayers!
She is a little blessing to our family!

love ya,
jodi sue :)

I know it will work out for you! Somehow, things always do work out!!

I am so glad he was positive about the prognosis.

Give her a hug and a kiss for me.

Jodi,
Saw you walking with Jailyn, Ms. Cindy and the other 3 Amigos. Looked like you all were having a nice stroll down Virginia! She is adorable and can't wait for you to come back and visit us!
Love,
Melissa
