Guest guest Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 , My heart goes out to you for all you have been through. I hope you will be done with everything soon. We leave for Santa Barbara in the morning. Our insurance won't cover Breanna's surgery so we have been fund raising for a year and finally have the money for the surgery. I am sure I will have questions after the surgery.

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 Hi , Good luck for you and your daughter. I am sure she will be fine. I am 19 days post op and its definetly worth it.
