It is now 10:oo pm and Sarah is back in her room and asleep.

They have put in an external shunt to drain the excess spinal fluid. They took a biopsy and we should know more in a couple of days. She was pretty visty and irritated when she returned to her room but they medicated her and she is now sound asleep.

We now wait for the results of the biopsy to see what we are dealing with. They do plan to go back in to do a more permanent shunt and what else depends on the outcome of the biopsy.
So she will have another surgery in a few days.

Thank you for your prayers, but please do not stop.

Allie and Ryan are doing extremely well. We are a close family and are open and loving. Thank you all for caring so much for all of us. I don't know how any of us can start to repay the kindness you have shown.

I have the night watch over Sarah until 2:00 am and then Billy will come and relieve me. Now that this is over Ronnie has agreed to sleep the whole night. He has not left her side, but to shower since Friday.

Don't forget to write Sarah messages. She read the first few and was deeply moved. My personal prayer is that my daughter sees what the Lord can do. Before surgery we prayed and she reaccepted Christ and has turned to anyone who will pray with her.

We love you all.

Alison
