Surgery Done

The ENT doctor finished his part quickly. He injected some gel in the area where the cleft is to temporarily swell it up. This gel will get absorbed in a few months. If the problem returns, Azer may need further surgery.

The Nissen surgery went well. He has 5 incisions but the surgeon didn't need to move his G-tube, which was Azer's biggest fear. He won't be able to eat solids for a while, but he can start on liquids and soft foods tomorrow. 

He is in recovery and doing well.
