Paul has had a number of reconstructive surgeries. He is now waiting for the last one to reposition his jaw and prepare for an implant where he is missing a tooth. We've been fortunate to connect with wonderful surgeons.

Dr. Kapitanski had a different type of procedure I never have to have it done again I had no lip involvement but you could tell I had a cleft palate. Now you wouldn't even notice he did such a fantastic job, sadly he was killed in a plane crash. :( I was lucky enough to have him work on my palate.
