Update On Kait

Post by tex »

Hi All,

Barbara called me this morning, while I was at work, and said that she is still having computer problems, so I told her that I would post an update on Kait. I just got back, and I see that she still hasn't been able to post, so here is all that I know about Kait's situation. Since the team of neuro doctors can't figure out what's wrong, rather than performing surgery, they are sending her home, to see how the shunt performs for a few days, now that they have increased the flow rate setting. So I suppose we'll cross our fingers, and see what happens. Apparently she is still having pain, but the vomiting has stopped. She is probably home by now.

I have to get back to work, so I'll check back, later.

Thanks for updating us. I have been thinking of Kait and her family all day. Good news that the vomiting has stopped. I hope and pray the shunt will work.
