Info on Clefting

For those of you who care to read more on what we may be dealing with when it comes to Eastons cleft lip/palate here are some websites that we have found helpful. Here you can read information, watch videos about emotional issues (for parents), feeding etc... also before & after pictures which have helped us tremendously and may help any of you who may be concerned about what he will look like. As far as we can tell he has a unilateral cleft (just on one side).
