We began several weeks ago taping Jason's cleft lip. (We like to say that we tape his mouth shut - just to keep things light, you know?!) The purpose of this is to pull the nasal septum more to center. This picture was taken of the first taping. It is very encouraging to see how much narrower the cleft is now and how much his nose is beginning to form a more normal shape.
