Another Update

Hello there. Gotta keep it short, as I need to get back to Lucy. The surgery was harder than the Neurosurgeon thought (due to some of her veins), and so there was some concern. But she seems to be doing great. She was just moved from recovery to Pediatric ICU. We will stay there tonight, and then she will have another MRI in the morning.

Mom, on the other hand is a scarier story. She is having surgery in the morning - but they are very concerned at the high risk of her not making it through the surgery due to her liver problems. They opted not to do the better surgery, because it would be way more dangerous. They are just going to do a 20 minute surgery (1 1/2 hours total time), because her odds are better of living through it. The odds of it fixing her hip are about 25% - but risk is very high. So keep her in your prayers please. I will update again when I get a chance (only a few places in the hospital I can use the Internet, and I don't leave Lucy alone at all, because it scares her.
