Good morning everyone!

Trying to track down someone to watch my boys so I can visit Hannah today. If no luck I'll be hanging out at the house with them.

So far I'm enjoying the Escape, the 2.0L engine doesn't accelerate my like my F150 did, but it's not far off. The AWD system seems to work well, haven't been able to spin a front wheel yet.

Good afternoon everyone.

Looks like Hannah may be able to go home tomorrow if everything goes well. She needs a shunt replacement, but they have to inflate the ventricles in her brain go give the surgeon room to work. So they turned up the pressure setting in her existing valve yesterday, and now it's a waiting game until they're big enough for surgery. Might take a week or two, but better waiting at home than in this place!

I had a spinal tap once and they screwed up the plug. That allowed fluid from the cavity around my brain to leak and while the pressure was off only a little, I was in excruciating pain to the point where breathing alone was almost more than I could handle. It took a few hours for them to get my cerebral fluid balanced.
I can only imagine what your courageous little girl is going through...
I am praying for her..

Thanks, Randy. She had a rough afternoon yesterday, but they eventually got it controlled with narcotics. After the sudden onset of pain they got another MRI, which showed no real change. Still may go home today with some pain meds, so we will see.
