Surgery Day #2

Dr. Gresham Richter's face said it all as he called us back to speak with him after surgery. "Everything looks great" he said with a huge smile. Oh course there is still the risk of Grayson's facial nerve being damaged causing facial paralysis and the nerve running to his tongue can be affected causing him to have a long lasting metallic taste in his mouth. We will not know until he comes to. But the most important part is he has made it through the surgery without difficulty and with all 22 electrodes fitting into his cochlea.
Thank you too all for your thoughts and prayers during our time of uncertainty. And most of all, thank you to our Heavenly Father. You wrapped your loving arms around Grayson and saw him through.
