Thank you everyone for the well-wishes.

Ashley is in good spirits and very tired of hanging out. So are we! But now we are playing the waiting game . The neurosurgeon had a procedure already scheduled for first thing this morning then it will be Ashley's turn. They will be in at 9:30 to give her a preliminary antibiotic then if everything goes well with the procedure the DR is already doing, they should come for Ashley around 11-11:30. Then we get to wait all over again until someone comes tothe surgery waiting area to let us know how she is doing. :/

Right now the hardest part is no letting her eat or drink. She hasn't had anything since yesterday morning

Anyway, I will let ya'll know how things go and am crossing my fingers they will let her go home tomorrow (which they *should* if her surgery is easy enough).

Joe, I plan on sneaking out sometime tonight and "checking out" some of the plants There are many colors of hibiscus....

Well, surgery took F-O-R-E-V-E-R! Actually, the WAITING took forever. They took us down to induction (like a holding area right before surgery). We were there for 3 HOURS! Oh well, the surgery went without a hitch and the neurosurgeon was quite pleased we had caught it so quickly. It was just a break in the tube at the valve like they thought so he replaced the valve and tubing but didn't have to operate on her head.

She has a couple new scars but we're just happy she has another lease on life. The DR is saying possibly home tomorrow or Thursday.

Now go do something fun and relax

I just now saw your post. I'm very thankful with you that all is going well and will pray for a speedy recovery. Our oldest has a complicated form of hydrocephalus as well, so I truly feel your pain. Hugs to you and her!
