Marissa is recovering

Marissa's surgery went well. It was first planned for 1:30,then the hospital call and rescheduled it for 2:45. But she wasn't taken into the OR it 4:15. We were the last in the pre waiting room, the last in the parents waiting room and the last to leave the day surgery. The Dr took out all 4 of her wisdom teeth plus a partial baby tooth that wouldn't come out. Then he had to attach a hook & chain to the adult tooth that is sideways in her gums. Next week she (& Patrick) goes to the orthodontist so they can pull the adult tooth down into place. They both are also getting their bottom braces. Right now she looks like a swollen chipmunk with bruises but in good spirits.
