First Surgery is finished

The first phase of Allyson's surgery is done. They began today at 12:45 pm. The surgeons placed 72 grids on her left side. These grids will map her brain. The surgeons will know what functions the damaged portion of her brain controls. Dr. Lee said that he found exactly what he expected and was pleased with the outcome of the first surgery.

The rest of this week will be testing to verify previous information. She will be in ICU until tomorrow. Only parents can visit until she is out of ICU. She can have visitors after that. She should be on 7A by Tuesday if all goes well.
