The Pressure's Off Reprise
Carly's intracranial pressure was building up all day and she was very uncomfortable so we were counting the minutes until she could have her surgery. She headed into the operating room at 4pm for the shunt revision, and they finished just after 6:30pm. Dr. Gupta said the surgery went better than he had expected and they were able to pass a new catheter down the same vein they originally used which helped minimize the number of incisions that Carly needed. Carly was intubated for the surgery and they were able to remove a significant amount of junky secretions from her lungs which should help her recovery from the pneumonia. She will remain intubated overnight, and if she is breathing well on her own tomorrow they will take her off of the breathing machine. Thanks for all the love and prayers that helped keep Carly safe through another surgery.
