I'm sorry to be so remiss in updating you, it's just not been a very good holiday. Dawana is still hanging on, she had her 16th, and hopefully last surgery on the legs on Thur, when they grafted the final part. Unfortunantly, she also had some type of problem with the trach, and her head and neck swelled to the point she is unrecognizable. She has been mostly unconcious the last several days, but that is probably due to her high fevers and pain meds. She has also developed a new bacterial infection in her blood, and the are looking for ways to control it. I spoke wiht her doctor yesterday, and he said he thought they might be able to do the polvis surgery on thur. or friday this week. please continue to keep her in your prayers bob ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
