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

...and we're home

Gonna keep this one brief folks with a promise to reflect more in the days to come. We're home, Georgia got the blessing to go mid-afternoon. Not after a bit of drama with a temp of 104 in the wee hours of the morning. They did a bunch of cultures, blood work and a chest x-ray to make sure she wasn't infected somewhere and everything looked good. Sure enough she broke out in a very viral-looking rash this evening, so it would be pretty unlikely that it's her new shunt. Dr. H was not concerned in the least...didn't even raise an eyebrow at the high temp (though he is a surgeon afterall!). The only fevers he cares about are those that start after post-op day #3. So fevers, go away!

Bit of a different medium for the video - here's a link to our good-bye to Denver Children's. Welcome home sweet baby girl! And much love to all :)
