Shelly got out of surgery at 11:30 and is doing well. The mesh is in place and she is hooked to the monitor. She has a headache and sore throat from the vent tube. When she was finally hungry, they brought her a big piece of chocolate cake which she quickly devoured! Tonight she will be in the NICU (Neuro-surgical ICU) to be monitored. We found favor with the neurosurgeon and got special permission to stay with her in the NICU. Tomorrow they will move her to the seizure monitoring unit. Now we wait. They want to monitor the beginning of her seizures, a minimum of 3, so it may take a little time to get 3 or more separate incidences. We are praying they come quickly.
We are not getting much sleep, so please pray also for us to get restful sleep.
More updates to come.
