MayK - We have you and your DD in our prayers!!

[Enerchi]

I know you are VERY busy right now with your DD's surgery, but even if you are lurking, I want you to know that I am thinking of you every step of the way along this scary journey.... I feel a "sympatico" bond between you and I with our DD's and I can only imagine the fear and anxiety I'd be going thru if this were MY daughter. I'm glad you are surrounded by family to give you the strength you need to be strong for her.

Know you both are in my thoughts and prayers and I wish nothing but the best from here on in... for all of you!!

((((HUGS)))) to you my dear, dear friend, and your sweet baby girl as well.... DUST DUST DUST for a speedy recovery. Get that young lady up bouncing and dancing and running around REAL soon!!!

This is the latest info:
Surgery began at 8:30 am Friday morning. At 10:30, the Tethered Spinal Cord release was almost complete. The next update at 12:30 was they were a little over half way done with the spinal fusion. The update at 2:30pm, they were closing up and the would wake her in the next 30 minutes. At 3:00 "she's nice and straight". ICU for the next one to two days.

This morning: 3 hours of a decent sleep between 4 - 7am today, but pain not fully under control. Neurosurgeon has stopped in and her strength is good.

I've just heard from MayK and she is grateful for all the prayers being sent on DD's behalf - "keep it up!" was her request! and she sends a heartfelt thank you for all the doctors and nurses at the hospital where they are being seen. Very appreciative of all the love that is being sent on her daughters behalf - a HUGE thank you to all who are thinking of them!

Update on DD's progress:

DD is in a LOT of pain and switching from one narcotic to another, for pain management. Today her epidural will be removed as well as getting her moving from her bed, up to a chair. She will be closely monitored in the ICU until early next week.

MayK thanks EVERYONE for all their positive prayers and good wishes!! There is nothing like knowing you are surrounded by people who care about you

 

[TooPatient]

Sending lots of hugs and positive thoughts to her and her daughter. I'm glad they got her all straight but sorry to hear she's still in pain. I hope they sort out her pain management soon and that her recovery is quick!

 

[movie zombie]

she is so young and is such a trooper. re this after surgery pain: may this be the pain that ends her pain.

 

[crown1]

I echo the prayers and well wishes for this young lady. I do not now the details but have read enough to know she has had tremendous suffering and pain. I join everyone in sending prayers for healing and love to her and her family. Wishing for time to fly for her and that she be fully healed and without pain very soon.

 

[AGBF]

My best friend had spinal surgery in March. The pain afterwards was excruciating. Not only was there pain at the site, but she kept feeling what felt like, "electric shocks" as the nerves that had been pressed together decompressed. She was on morphine for months, but it didn't make a dent. If MayK's daughter is experiencing the same level of pain, there is nothing in the world more terrible.

My friend had not been able to walk before her surgery and now, miraculously, can. I wish for a similar miracle for MayK's daughter as well as relief from her pain. Prayers will continue.

I send my love, too.

Deb

 

[PintoBean]

So sorry to hear she's in such pain, poor child Must be really rough on Mayk too - I hope they can figure out how to manage her pain soon. Keeping everyone in my thoughts.
