Riley's Diagnosis

Riley James Faiai is my 2 year old son who was born with Craniosynostosis and probable Pfeiffer syndrome. When he was 5 months old, Riley had surgery to reconstruct his skull.

Riley Update 9.29.06

The Plastic Surgeon's office called while Steve was home this morning. Riley's surgery is set for Wednesday, January 3rd, 2007. We will go up 2 days earlier for a pre-op visit, where we will be able to take a tour of the place, meet with the anesthesiologist, and find a place to stay for the 4 day's we'll be in LA. We'll find out in a couple of days when and where we'll go to give blood for Riley. More details, and thoughts to follow. For now, here's a picture of Riley and also a REALLY cute picture of my friend, Tara's baby girl, Emersen!
