Today Jennifer goes in and has the angiogram and the embolism. They will put her under general anesthesia. She will spend the next three days in ICU and then on Monday at 7:00 am she will have the brain surgery. This is an AVM resection and it is positioned in her speech and mobility center of her brain. They just need to remove this little piece to stop the time bomb in her head from continuing to tick... People don't usually get advance notice that they have this, they usually die. The Neurosurgeon said that 1 in 7 people have this birth defect. He said that an AVM is usually the cause of perfectly healthy people passing away in their sleep for no apparent reason.
I appreciate that so many are adding Jennifer to their prayer lists and are praying for her already! Thank you! Please continue to pray for her and that God will guide her surgeons hand and that she will heal and be whole! Thank you again for your prayers, they mean the world to us!
I will keep you updated on how she is doing. Thank you again! Patty
