Out of Surgery




At 11:30 am, Reagan underwent surgery for removal of her neck mass. Due to the complexity of the mass and its location, buried beneath her neck muscles and various blood vessels, it wasn't until 4:00 pm that Dr. Hoehner entered the waiting room to provide the answer of the day: Reagan is doing well. We won't know the exact cause or nature of the abnormal cells for another week or so, but as of right now they are removed from her body.
We are including before and after photos of her neck to demonstrate the marvels of modern medicine. Thank you all for your prayers and messages of support and deliveries of food, both seen and unseen.
Seeing how many doctors were involved in the deliberations surrounding our little girl and her ability to confound them all, we are certain that we have a very special girl.
