Update on Gracie's Surgery

Surgery went great!! Gracie made it through the VNS surgery very well this morning and is recovering now. They have not activated the VNS yet but they will be activating it today or tomorrow. We are very hopeful that the VNS will help with the seizures as they continue to take her out of the coma. I will post more over the weekend. Thank you for all the positive thoughts and prayers!! Love you all so much!!

Gracie's Surgery

Tomorrow will be a very big day. Gracie will be going into surgery at 7:30 am to have a Vagal Nerve Stimulator placed to help with the seizures she is having as they bring her out of her coma. We have made a lot of progress going down on her coma medication over the last week, but she has been having some seizures and they feel like this VNS may help us control the seizures so we can completely take her out of the coma for the first time in almost 9 weeks. Please pray for our amazing Grace tonight and I will update everyone after her surgery tomorrow!!! Thanks so much for all the love and support!!!

Update from Gracie's Mommy

We just wanted to post a quick update on our amazing Grace. It has almost been a week since they began to slowly take her out of her coma and we have been able to go down farther on her coma medication then we have previously without the seizures becoming constant and uncontrollable. She has had some seizure activity but it has not been strong enough or frequent enough for them to stop going down on the medication. We still have many days to go before we get down enough to know how she will do but we stay very hopeful. The biggest struggle we have had has been with the constant rotation of the physicians. The teams, including the ICU and Neurologists, change every 7 days. It is beyond frustrating and has been our biggest complaint with the patient care at the hospital. Our nurses have saved our sanity. They are truly the heart of this place and have taken such incredible care of our Gracie. Please continue to pray and send those positive thoughts. We are amazed everyday with all the support and love from everyone. We will never be able to thank you all enough!!! Love you all so much!!
