Journal entry by Angela Fischer —
Elle’s surgery was a success today and she is thrilled to be rid of the hardware. She opted to brave the long ride home tonight while the numbness and major pain meds were still in effect and we made it safe and sound. Her doctor is very encouraged by the stability of her jaw and is optimistic that the procedure will be a good long-term solution to simulate a jaw joint. Now the focus shifts to PT for continued stretching and orthodontics. We are so happy to have our sweet girl home and resting. Thank you for all of the well wishes and messages of encouragement! ❤️
