Hi everyone,
I'm sitting at the hospital using a borrowed lap top. Breanne's surgery was Friday at Cincinnati Children's. Her surgery took about 6 hours. All went well. She was fused P T3-T12. Recovery is so hard at this point. It just breaks your heart to see your child in that kind of pain. The pain management team have done their best to make her comfortable and safe. She also had a small thoracoplasty. Her Dr. removed 2 inch sections from 3 ribs to help with her rib hump and to use for her graph. She is sleeping now. They got her up and had her sit in a wheel chair for about a 1/2 hour. Ouch! Please keep her in your prayers as she recovers. I'll be happy to answer questions or offer support as I have time.
