Sorry I have not gotten photos of the new yorkie puppies yet
My daughter Melanie has a broken neck where the spine connects to the skull. Her spinal cord is compressed. She lost use of her hands and has numbness in her chest. She is immobilized with a brace and on steroids to reduce swelling. The surgeon is working on a complicated and riskie plan to re attach her skull She is terrified as we all are. She messaged me this note tonight.
Thank you and I love you. Please request all the prayers possible. It’s okay to share my condition.
You are the one who would make decisions on my behalf. There is the possibility that I become completely paralyzed from the neck down. If that were to affect my breathing and make it so that I would have to have machines breathing for me, I don’t want to live like that and please always take care of and love Hanna and Dacotah for me. But, If there is a chance of breathing on my own again then I want to keep fighting to recover. But please let’s all remain positive. I have a great surgeon and I have a strong will to beat the odds. I love you
