Geoff, so glad to hear it went well. I know you must be relieved. If her eye swells up a lot don't be alrmed. They didn't tell us that Destin's would and it scared me! Try to rest when you can. I know you want to be there for her but it will be draining on you too.

Good news that Tanya's surgery went well.
You do need to try and take care of yourself too. Easier said than done, especially when you have children. I would suggest talking to a social worker in the neurology dept if they have one. Wish I had done this when my daughter had her surgery. It helps to talk and know that your are not alone.
Wishing your family all the best during Tanya's recovery.
Email me if you have any questions or need a chat.
Take care.

So happy to hear Tanya's surgery went well! My son had the surgery and his head was shaved, but we keep his hair shaved anyway!

It is crazy to think how fast they are released from the hospital after this type of surgery. She will amaze you at how well she does!
