Dear friends and family -



Thanks for visiting Georgia's page! As most of you know, Georgia had been struggling with worsened seizures since January 2010. She subsequently underwent seizure surgery which resulted in a functional hemispherectomy on July 21st at Denver Children's Hospital. We really appreciate all of the kind thoughts and prayers that you have showered on her (and us!) - please keep them coming! We hope this website/blog can be an easy way for us to keep everyone informed on how Georgia is doing. Bare with us...we're new at this!


Love - Rick and Alicia

back on track!


Just a quick note...

we realize we should be getting to bed earlier since the nights are disruptive and the mornings are so early! Do neurosurgeons really need to round at 6AM? Especially on mornings after we had 2 IV infiltrates overnight?! Yes, fellow RN/NPs, we were pissed.

In any event - Georgia had a good day today, proving our theory that there will be ups and downs even as we get further out from surgery. Today's ups: a thorough hair wash (fig 1), much less puking, some actual eating, lots of smiles (fig 2), more singing and best of all STANDING during PT (fig 3). We were so proud! More tomorrow...good night to all.
