      I PROMISE she will be fine! Dr Asghar is a phenomenal surgeon! Please update us on how it goes.

      By tomorrow she will be walking. By monday he will be basically back to normal if that helps ease your mind. Wait until Monday or Tuesday, clowns will come and visit her and will make you and Lia smile! This is a scary experience but trust me in the end it will be all worth it!

            Thinking of your daughter tonight, hoping for a swift recovery. Kids seem to grow quick and heal quick.
