I just got home after a few hours at the hospital. I wanted Teresa to update this because she is so good about remembering all the details, but I will try my best.
Tami's surgery went well I guess. They were able to remove a portion of her skull on the right side so that they could relieve the pressure on her brain. They also put a fiber optic monitor in on the left side to monitor the pressure. Teresa said it makes her look like Cindy Lou Who. It sticks straight out of the top of her head. She doesn't look so hot, and I was not prepared. I guess I thought she would be in the hospital for a couple of days and then she would come home and she would go to rehab to work on her gimpy leg and her arm that wouldn't cooperate. Oh, how I wish that were the case. It is going to be a long road. If I understood the doctor correctly, she could be in the hospital up here in SLC for weeks and there will be months of recovery.
I know she and we could use all the prayers that are offered. Please remember her in yours.
