Really, part deux

[aftershocks]

Hugs Gerry & Lee. Thinking of you and sending my prayers! Your love and strength is such a blessing.

 

[FreeAgent]

We'll keep on praying Gerry!

 

[Kasey]

Hoping this will be a blessing in disguise and that it will be discovered that she doesn't even need the shunt, and thus, this is the opportunity to remove it.

 

[MacMadame]

Well, crap. And I was just reading about her getting a milkshake today.

 

[mella]

Keeping you both and your family in my thoughts.

 

[skatingfan5]

Gerry: As others have posted, I hope this is just a temporary setback. Keeping Lee and you both in my thoughts.

 

[victorskid]

Here's hoping that this unexpected bump in the road has a very positive outcome - keeping up the thoughts and prayers from here!

 

[Gerry]

Hello again, skatefriends! Lee just now went into surgery... we have the doctor we want, the procedure he has chosen makes sense to us, and we have faith. Please spend a moment to think about her over the next few hours; we feel your support and care.

I will be back to let you know how it all went after she returns to me... probably in a few hours.

Thanks for the shoulders to lean on. Some says, we need them more than others.

will stay close to this thread in the next few hours and will focus on situation where shunt is no longer needed and Lee feeling better without it. Take good care & nap if you can..(seeing as no one will hand you a scapel to help out.) I know it is frustating to only wait and wait.

 

[PatChan4O]

Yes, Gerry, thinking of both you and Lee especially for the next few hours. Please feel free to post whenever you feel like it. We are here for you both.

 

[aftershocks]

God bless you both! My thoughts are with you and Lee and your family!

 

[WildRose]

Sending only good thoughts for Lee - hang in there Gerry, she’s in good hands.

 

[MrSatterwhite]

Keeping you both in my prayers.

 

[pp55]

God bless you both! Sending good thoughts.

 

[Spun Silver]

Praying.

I just saw the update. I hope all goes well for Lee. Hugs to both of you.

Hi everybody. Gerry again, with an update.

Lee is out of surgery, but there were complications with anesthesia, and she has been transferred to Neurosurgical ICU, still intubated and unconscious.

Her shunt has been completely removed; their plan is to leave her intubated until they can be sure she doesn’t need another one. If so, another surgery. If not, they will have the specialists extubate her and we get back to the business of recovery.

But for now, she remains in intensive care. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers... she isn’t out of the woods yet.

***another update.. she was awake for s few moments... responsive, cognitive, alert. The team in neuro was happy, then re-sedated her to sleep.

This was supposed to be easy...

 

[Vash01]

Gerry, thanks for the update. I hope Lee continues to improve and everything goes well. Glad to hear that the neuro team was happy.

You have our shoulders to lean. Lots of positive energy to you!

 

[aftershocks]

Thanks for the update, Gerry. Our thoughts and hearts are with you both.

 

[skatesindreams]

Awaiting further news: sending strength and energy to both of you, in the meantime.

[victorskid]

You have both weathered all the bumps in the road that you have encountered in this very lengthy process so far - I'm hoping this one will get "sorted" as quickly as possible with only positive outcomes.

I continue to hold you both in my thoughts and prayers and am grateful for your updates @Gerry

Adding to the positive vibes being sent your way. I believe the universe owes her (and you) a speedy recovery.

Thank-you for the update. It seems to me that Lee before has taken time to wake up after a procedure. So glad she came around and doctors are happy.PLs let us know how she is doing later on.

 

[Lizziebeth]

Glad Lee was awake and responsive and is now getting some sleep. She is in my thoughts and let us know how she is doing.

 

[skatemomaz]

I wish you both strength and healing. Thinking of Lee and sending healing vibes.
I'm in Sedona this week and remembering a lovely chat Lee and I had about visiting here. Here's hoping you and she can one day travel and again enjoy the spectacular red rocks and tranquillity of this beautiful place.

 

[PRlady]

Your bravery in the face of so much time and many setbacks is utterly amazing. Hoping for the best as always.

 

[Spun Silver]

We're at 50 pages and almost 1500 posts in the *second* thread about Lee and her faithful Gerry. And on it goes. I wish you both continued superhuman strength and love and care and support... and years and years of peace after Lee gets home at last. May that day come soon.

 

[Aceon6]

@Spun Silver I was going to close it as Lee had started posting, but let’s keep it a while longer. Perhaps she can start the next one.
