Adam had surgery!

Adam had surgery in his face. This is because his MRI showed significant sinitus in his head last spring. So he saw an ENT and after years of ruling out allergies and doing antibiotics he decided it was best to change the anatomy. So the doctor took cartilage from his ear to rebuild is septum. He removed his old septum totally and built a new one around a dissolvable splint. Then he also cut off the tip of his nose and lifted it a bit to aide in better drainage. He widened tubes (like my technical terms?) in his sinuses so that things can drain better. He made some flaps up there smaller too so the same reason. The doc said Adam will be in pain for two weeks then it’ll be much better. The surgery was done the 30th and we are taking it easy. Poor guy! I really hope this pays off for him.
