Quick Abby Update

Written 12PM on Thursday.

Kelly just called me. Abby’s eyes are fine. The fact that her left eye doesn’t dilate when light hits it is because of the scar tissue that formed during the laser surgery. It will not affect her vision at all. Also, THE LASER SURGERY SEEMS TO HAVE WORKED! Her eyes will be okay. She’ll need glasses and what not, but the likelihood of her going blind is very very small. As a result of this good news, the MRI is canceled which was ordered because the potential eye problem could be neuro related.

At the moment, the docs and nurses are still trying to coordinate Abby’s G Tube surgery. We’re trying to squeeze her in today, and it’s considered a last minute surgery so it’s hard to put it all together. Not to mention if an emergency surgery is needed from another patient, Abby gets bumped.

Say some prayers that Abby will get the G Tube in today, because the sooner that happens the sooner we can take her home. Home! HOME! HOME!!!!
