Mouth Closed...Finally!

The beautiful result of Vera's adenoid and tonsil removal is that she can now close her mouth.

In the past, Vera had her mouth open all the time - she was a mouth breather since birth.

These days, she keeps pursing her lips and constantly blows bubbles in and out. Finally, she can play with her saliva!

It's a sign that her nostrils are clear and she is breathing easy.

The "sound" of her silent breathing is absolutely music to my ears.

She is so precious. I am so happy that she can breathe freer. Do you notice breathing or sats better at night?

May, I'm very happy that everything is going well. Especially now that Vera is able to sit more upright and you can now bring her to different places. It's going to be great for her!
Wishing you, Ian, Vera and Dean a very fantastic year ahead!
