Grandsports daughter and family need out prayers

[Ms Grumpy]

Today, if I am correct, grandsports daughter Lindsay will be having surgery at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in Manhattan.

I have never met Lindsay but I feel like I know her. I do know that she is the apple of her dads eye and that he is so proud of her. When Gary talks about Lindsay he just lights up.

Lindsay has had to deal with more pain than anyone should at her age and today we are all hoping a praying that the surgery helps relieve some or all of that pain.

Please join me in sending Gary and his family positive thoughts and lots of prayers for Lindsay. After her surgery Lindsay will be spending some time in the hospital and I have asked Gary to post the address and room number so that I can send her cards to make her feel better. If anyone else can I know that it will be appreciated.

One more thing, lets just keep this thread going everyday to show our support of Gary and his family.

Thanks Nancy.This is going to be a long ass day.They took her at 6:30am,the waiting continues for some news.

They just finished up a few minutes ago.She did very well and the doctors are more than pleased.Given what they found and repaired she is almost guaranteed a 50% reduction in her pain.Everyone will be cautiously optomistic about a 70-80% reduction.Thanks again for your support!

I'm glad to hear that she's getting better Gary.

Wonderful news Gary. Lindsay will continue to be in my thoughts. Let me know the address and room number as soon as you have time. I would like to send her a card.

I just talked to her a little while ago!No paralysis anywhere but they are having trouble managing her pain because she has become so immune to the drugs.

They will figure it out Gary. I know that with David's Factor 5, they have certain things that will and won't work. I have confidence that they will find a way to manage her pain. I hope you, and she, can get some rest tonight. How is your wife doing ?
