It\u2019s now been 25 days since Peyton\u2019s surgery to advance his jaws, and open his airway.\u00a0 We knew it was going to be a long, hard recovery, and it still is. \u00a016 of those 25 days have been spent in the hospital. \u00a0The main problem was the loss of appetite.\u00a0 He got very picky in the foods he wouldn\u2019t eat.\u00a0 Even shakes and smoothies, staples of this post-surgery diet, he didn\u2019t want to have anything to do with.\u00a0 Then, we was re-admitted to the hospital last week, because he dropped 17 lbs.\u00a0 While there, we finally learned he also had developed 2 ulcers, which obviously contributed to him not wanting to eat.<\/p>\n
But, after having TPN nutrition being fed to him via IV, and starting to eat more, he has gained 8 lbs back, is back home, and in better spirits.\u00a0 Only 5 more days before he can have a hamburger!<\/p>\n
The good news is that the surgery seems to be successful, and he is sleeping so much better now!\u00a0 As you can see by the attached pictures, his airway has opened significantly.\u00a0 No more sleep apnea or snoring.\u00a0 He is more rested already.<\/p>\nOnce again, thank you so much for your prayers and support during this trying time, we sincerely appreciate it!
