Today I was on pins and needles waiting for a call from my Mom. She went with my sister and niece Ariel to the doctor. Mom was watching Ariel Friday while my sister was at work and was shocked to see that her spine was just as curved as before surgery. An appointment was made to confirm our suspicions that something had gone wrong. One of her screws has come out of her spine and they are needing to go back in and redo the screw while double checking the others to make sure that they are holding. Ariel is, of course, scared and not looking forward to going through this all over again. The surgery is scheduled for Wednesday. Until then she has been fitted for a brace to wear after this next surgery that extends from her chest down to the side of her leg to make sure that her body stays aligned after this surgery.
While in the hospital from Ariel's last surgery my sister had a mammogram. The results came back that there was a calcium mass that they are wanting to do a biopsy on. She was told that the mass has a 70% chance of being benign but still wanting to make sure. They are wanting to do the biopsy on Thursday.
Please pray for them. Their nerves are shot after going through a surgery less than 2 weeks ago and having an additional concern to weigh on them. I will keep you updated.
