Carly enjoyed her relaxing days on the beach, and she definitely liked eating fresh bananas (picked from our own tree,) pineapple and papaya. We got home late last night after a great trip but the seizures are sticking around, occuring 5-6 times a day now. We are following up with neurosurgery and neurology at UCSF as well as some second opinions in hopes of finding a way to help Carly past this hurdle. We'll keep praying for, and envisioning, an end to these episodes and peaceful days ahead for Carly.
Love, Brad

I was wondering what was up? I love this picture of Carly. She looks so relaxed. Hope you 3 are recharged!
Will keep sending positive thoughts.
I printed this photo and it's replacing an old one I have of Carly on my office wall. Beautiful pic! She looks sunny, happy and relaxed!
So glad to hear you all were able to enjoy some time in a beautiful place and hope the seizures slow down real soon. xoxo
Thanks for the update. I was beginning to wonder if there was anything new - I'm glad to see that you were just taking time to recharge. I love the picture - she has so much hair now! I don't know how you guys do it - a trip to Hawaii sounds so wonderful!
I want to crawl in that photo and smooch that little cutie! I love her hair. (It's all you, Brad!) Your vacation sounds like it was perfect for you all. Still praying...
Your mom and dad gave us a personal Carly update when the four Nelson siblings and their spouses met for lunch last Sunday. (Somehow, we have joined that generation.) It is fun to have a new photo--from your Hawaii trip!
Love,
Greg and Gail

Christa and Brad,
I haven't written a note in a long time. But, I'm so glad to hear that Carly's newest shunt is doing its job and that you were able to enjoy a family vacation. I can't believe how big your sweet girl is.
I'm continuing to think about you all and send good thoughts and healthy vibes for your princess.
Glad to know #12 is working well so far and praying for Carly's seizures to go away. Sounds like your trip and stay in paridise was a good time for all three of you.
Carly must have the strongest constitution,internal will to continue her fight to heal. She draws strength from all of the loving, caring,prayer support she gains from her precious mom and dad and the rest of her family. Also, from what seems like a fine team of medical folks committed to working for her highest good. My prayers continue for healing and exra faith and strength for Carly and parents and family and physicians.
Evie
