Surgery update

*UPDATE @ 2:20 PM*

Kristina is in her room now. 524 at Baptist Hospital, Little Rock. She's pretty worn out and sore, so she's resting quietly.

*UPDATE @ 11:30 AM*

Dr. Reding says Kristina's surgery went well. She'll need to lay flat until tomorrow sometime. When we come home will depend on how she does when she gets up and around then.

I'll post her room number when I have it.

*UPDATE @ 10:45 AM*

They're closing her up now, so it sounds like the surgery went more quickly than expected.

*UPDATE @ 9:30 AM*

I was wrong. They just called me and said they were starting the surgery. So we're looking at surgery wrapping up around noon.

*UPDATE @ 9:15 AM*

They rolled Kristina out of pre-op about an hour ago, and were supposed to let me know when surgery actually started. They haven't changed her status on the monitor, and haven't called me, but I'm guessing that's an oversight.

Kristina and I are waiting in pre-op. They ordered a special shunt for her yesterday afternoon, and are waiting for it to arrive. Once they take her back, surgery is scheduled to take two and a half hours. I don't expect to see her after surgery until they have her settled in her room.
