update from Jeninef about Amy

Hi Everyone, Jeninef just asked me to post an update for all of you...this is the message she sent....
Amy is fine, the surgery went good. Five hours long. Dr. Nakaji doesnt expect any problems and expects a full recovery.  Everyone here has only good things to say about him. We are still in ICU.

This is wonderful news! I will let you know if I hear anything else, I plan to visit Amy soon.

Selma, its funny you mention having met another chiarian that you only knew online. My DH decided to drive me to the hospital (thank goodness he did, I never would have made it) and after we left he look at me and said, "So, I thought you said you didnt know Amy. No one would have known otherwise."  I told him he was awful quiet and asked him if he was ok with everything we were talking about. He answered, "I couldnt get a word in if I wanted to!"  So I explained a little about how this forum works, and how we all seem to become a new family on here. Later last night I saw him on here looking around to see what its like. I think he was quite surprised to see all of the support and info. I think the whole thing was kind of an eye opening experience.

I was able to visit Amy today and she is doing great! We had a great time visiting. She was scheduled to be released today, but the Dr. were called into a trauma case and that left her waiting for discharge orders.  She is very excited to get home.
Wait until you guys see her zipper, the Dr. did something amazing and I was quite surprised! She promised to post soon.
