Just wanted to give you all an update. Grady went into surgery at 12:00. With three procedures to complete, they will probably take around 4- 6 hours. We will not know anything until they give us calls after each procedure. For now we are just asking that you pray for our little man. I will put more information out as we receive it. First surgery is to put a line in for the antibiotics that G will require for about the next 6 weeks. Then they will drain the infected areas to pull that off of his brain. Last but not least, the surgeon will move to the other side of his brain to see if they can relieve pressure from the cyst that is pushing on his brain. So, we are looking at a very long day and a very long recouperation.
Grady was alert this morning and smiling at Mommy and Daddy. He was responding much better today than he was yesterday. Later, we may have more surgery facing him, but for now they will concentrate on the infection and the pressure.
Thank you all for your prayers and support.
More updates later.
JoJo
