Today is July 1st in which Emily was to have her first surgery to install the veptr and begin her correction of the scoliosis. However, after both surgeons conferring, it's agreed that the problem of this new sack of spinal fluid needs to be addressed. Her surgery is scheduled for this coming Monday morning, first thing while the PreOp is this Friday at Noon.
We will certainly ask for prayers that they do not discover any problems and that the matter of the spinal fluid is resolved and we can move forward with procedures to straighten her back out.
Also, we ask for prayers that insurance will cover the majority of this surgery. I just received word that we're going to be responsible for 20%, which could be to the tune of $15,000. Although it wouldn't be the end of the world, we just simply don't wish to get into further financial straits here. Emily's health and well-being are certainly priority.
