Latvia and Beyond...

Dear friends, family and blog followers from Latvia (no seriously we have page views from Latvia). We had a little glitch in our recovery and decided to take a trip back to the hospital where Mum had her brain surgery. Recovery was going really well and she had the stitches removed on Wednesday just as they had told us to. When I called mum to see how her head was feeling she replied "wet". I didn't quite understand what she meant until I got home to see for myself. The incision site was in fact leaking a clear fluid quite consistently. Ryan took mum to emergency and waited patiently with her until the neurosurgeon came to take a peak. They decided to keep her overnight for observation and to run a few tests and scans. The Dr. Also came in tonight and put 2 new sutures in at the base of the incision site which will hopefully stop any further leakage. The fluid has been totally clear this entire time (looks like water) but is actually what they call CSF or Crainial Spinal Fluid. I think we all feel like we are learning way more about this stupid disease than we ever wanted to. We should get to go home on Friday once all scans come back clear. YAY! Our little lovely Granny is recovering as well, we took her into East General on Monday as she just wasn't feeling right. She seems to be doing much better now and we hope to also have her home soon too. Christmas is fast approaching and we want everyone home together to celebrate the holidays. Thank you always for everyone's support, words of encouragement and love. XOXO Keryn Ps...mums room is back on the 5th floor with 2 huge windows overlooking the city with great views of the CN Tower.
