Quick Update

Ellie has been a little on the tired side today. This morning was her first minor set-back. She has been fighting so hard that she decided to take a break for a bit! She is on a respirator because of some sleep apnea spells. This can be typical for a little girl with two neurosurgeries in one day and for a major change in brain fluid pressures. Time will tell when she will be breathing without assistance again, but the doctors are not concerned. I think she is just needing some attention and a little break. Her head size has gone doown 2 cm and she loves to squeeze our fingers. Her surgeries went very well yesterday and she is continuing to improve in other ways. It is really too soon to know anything factual about her conditions. Time and patience are the doctors answers right now and she is in very good hands. We are loving her more every minute! Stay tuned for before and after pics. Earl will try to post some more tomorrow. We love all of you! Thanks for your support!
