Wednesday night

I just got back from the hospital and it's late, so I'll just write a short note.

The dr pulled the tube out tonite that was monitoring Cindy's spinal fluid pressure at about 8:15 pm, he's pretty dedicated!!  Before that, both the neurologist and neurosurgeon were in her room for a while discussing options and there were several.  One of the biggest problems right now is the timing with the holidays coming and their vacations and the weekend.  What the plan is now if the drs can get an operating room is to tie off Cindy's shunt tube by her collarbone area hopefully by Friday, tomorrow would be too soon to schedule. Then it is wait and see what her reaction to it would be.  If  the pressure goes up they could do another spinal tap Sat or Sun to relieve the pressure and go in Monday hopefully for the anti siphoning device which stops or slows down the gravity pull on the fluid, which causes overflowing when she is sitting or standing up.  I will send a note tomorrow when we find out what is going to happen.
