My Own Room!!

Emily has finally been moved to a regular room on the pediatric floor! Yahh Emily!! She was out of bed in the wheelchair and Steve wheeled her outside for some non-hospital air, and down the hall to see rooms with no tubes and bed pans :). She is now resting comfortably in her new room watching TV.

She is recovering well and should be released tomorrow sometime. From there she will be staying at the Homewood Suites in nearby Brisbane, California (10 minutes from the hospital) until next week when she has her first check up. At that check up the Dr. will program the devices she has put in and hopefully it will begin to make the dystonia a thing of the past.

While it is not a cure (there is no known cure), this surgery should help Emily lead a normal life...and we all know that includes the big party Karen promised her...food, cake, Mr. Pibb (her fav) chicken nuggets (Is there any other kind of chicken?) and of course - dancing :)
