Our little trooper-

Camilla's surgery to implant the Vagus Nerve Stimulator was February 24th at Children's Hospital in Birmingham. She did great, she is always such a little trooper about the doctor visits, tests, surgeries and other procedures that we have to put her through. She came through the two hour surgery just fine and has recovered nicely at home since then. We are still seeing seizures everyday, in fact they seem to have worsened for the time being, but we are still hopefull that after adjustments to the device and the trauma of the surgery wearing off we will start to see improvements. Please continue to pray that this device will stop her seizures and help to reduce the amount of the medications that she is taking all resulting in improved learning skills and an acceleration in acheiving developmental milestones.
