I had a business meeting arranged last night with an Irish contact visiting Hong Kong. He was keen to adjourn for drinks. I was not one for refusing. We got to discussing kids and, guess what, his first child was born with a large cleft in his palate! Such a small world sometimes and this is where I concur with Eimhear: when you reach out to the universe it can only but help you and will respond.
There were so many parallels in our lives that we could have been separated at birth.
Freaky coincidence.
Anyway, the long and short of it was that we got more tips from someone who had recently gone through it. The main tips were really about how it is absolutely useless to worry. The feeding will get sorted out, the surgery will get done and any other issues we might face, say with ears, speech, dentistry will be relatively minor. A great confidence booster as we come to the last few days pre-delivery.
What about that!
