Third Time's A Charm

Carly's surgery is over and she is just waking up from her anesthesia. Dr. Auguste replaced her shunt valve with a programmable version that allows them to adjust the flow when necessary and it is set at the lowest setting to let her brain get some relief from the pressure. She looks really peaceful and we are all feeling confident about her new shunt.

Love, Brad

Thinking of all of you and sending love. Thanks brad, for keeping this up to date. I'm sure this is not easy at all, and we're all here to support you through the process. Once little C is healed and on another upswing to recovery, we'd love to come over and see you - and do whatever we can to help lend more positivity.
