Well, this time there were complications, we couldn't get her to wake up after the first surgery at 7:00am. No amount of physical stimulation would arouse her. Dr went back into her brain a 2nd time about 2:00pm. She was then placed in ICU, by now she's been non responsored for over 14 hours. Sometime late in the evening she started coming around. For this we were praising the Lord! She has spent 4 days in the hospital and will be in extensive rehab for a while. Her left side was greatly affected. She is unable to dress her self, feed herself, walk by herself, but she can talk, and she can walk with the assistance of a walker with arm supports/rests. Please pray for her / us during time of recovery. Thank you all!!!! BTW; her name is Shea pronounced like Shae.
