				A update on my little girl
			 
			 
			
		
		
		Just wanted to let everyone know that my daughters surgery on Friday went very well. They have a great staff in there and they really do care. They made her feel very safe and very special..It did not take very long, but I gotta tell ya, watching your child get put under is something I was not ready for. When she woke up after the surgery she was sooo cute, she said "sorry Dad, I fell asleep"    she looked like me after a few libations...We spent the better part of the day in recovery and she soaked it up..When it was time to leave she said "I think I want to stay, you guys can go", lol...She loved having popsicles and ginger ale delivered with the push of a button..That and the craftmatic adjustable bed thing made her day..She is still in a good amount of pain and has a temp but meds are helping..She already has another 2 appointments at Ma Eye and Ear for more testing and evaluations, but she is handling it very well...She is a great kid, truely..So to all of you that wished her well and said a little something, it worked    We still have a ways to go, but you still have to take it one step at a time..I just want her to smile and laugh and love her Christmas morning, that is my xmass wish..Thanks to everyone, I know it helped...Happy Holidays to everyone, and remember that Christmas is about sharing and enjoying life with the ones you love...

		 Chris, 
 
I am glad she is doing well and I hope your situation demonstrated by your loving support during these difficult times serves as a remindeer to the rest of us, things are not so bad most days after all.  I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas.
