How lucky Ana-Maria, Carlee and Dr. Santiago are to represent the Duke Team at the American Cleft Palate Craniofacial Association Annual meeting this week! We have learned new, innovative treatments and approaches to care, met strong, brave people, caught up with old friends (shout out to Dr. Chris Forrest!!), and made new friends from Teams around the nation. We also think it is hillarious to see Dr. Marcus here (on a poster). Bringing it all back to Durham to share with our awesome families!

What a smile!! Anderson is so cute- and has been since he was a baby. He’s a big kid now- and really loves music. He’s a drummer- and living his best life. (Although probably pretty loud at his house)
We will need to get your autograph at your next visit - you are on your way to stardom!!

Wendel is such an awesome person- he is cool, kind, funny, smart and handsome. He is also busy with life and college so we were extremely hapy he could fit us in!! We've known him his whole life- and everyone just loves seeing him and catching up. Sorry Wendel, I don't think we can ever graduate you from our Team! 💙

Athena strikes again- caught being awesome! This is an award she won at school for growth in reading. Mom reports it's partly due to her tremendous improvement with her speech sounds. Both Mom and Athena shout out to Jenny Kern for "un-BEE-🐝lievable" speech help and progress. 🙂
Athena- we are so proud of you and know you can do anything you set your mind to!

Look who stopped by on a Wednesday... Melissa!! Most all of you remember her fondly- as our Team social worker for over a decade! 🥰She says "hello" and gives her best to all our families! So glad to see you Melissa, come visit anytime 😘

For the families we walk alongside, a smile can be a hard-won victory. It represents the late nights, persevering through NAM, hoping the next feeding will go well, and the belief that every child deserves to express their joy without hesitation. We celebrate the strength behind every smile that evolves the first year of life. Barron - we sure love your smile, (and the original is priceless as well).

Crystal, Levi's mom, wanted to share a picture of Levi and the orthodontics team from last week. "He got his braces off! Major milestone for us. He is 7 months post surgery and now braces free! He has been with Duke for 15 years. Just a happy day that I wanted to share. The picture is just missing Dr. Levy. Thankfully we saw him the visit before this. We are thankful for Dr. S, Dr. Levy, Tina, Taylor and Hannah " 💙

They have been training for years for this moment. See their clear focus, the relentless determination, and the fierce competitiveness of these two ultimate athlete scrappers in the Office Olympics...

Part of what I love about our Team Day is that we try to make our kids feel comfortable. Daniel loved playing music wtih our music teacher, William, and when he was done waiting for Dr. Allori, he just went in the work room and got him. That's an effective way to move along your day!! 😍 (See, it worked)
