Back Again?
You're not going to believe it, but we are back in the hospital once again. Last night we noticed that the dressing on Carly's shunt incision seemed damp and later in the night it was clear that CSF was leaking through the suture holes of the incision on the back of her head. We spoke with neurosurgery first thing this morning and they admitted her around 1pm. Dr. Gupta is coming in to perform another revision on the shunt later tonight. They will inspect all of the components and replace anything that may be faulty. They will also take extra care to ensure that the shunt has a water-tight seal where it exits her skull. We continue to visualize a healthy and happy Carly at the end of all of these surgeries.

I'm visualizing that too. Lots of good thoughts, and ease for Carly. Thinking of you guys up there at UCSF.
Above all else, we want a healthy and happy Carly, too. She is in our prayers daily. You are wonderful parents and she is the strongest child we know. We send you lots of love.
