Surgery March 14, 2011 Noon

Alexis is scheduled for her surgery March 14, 2011.   She will be in Sacred Heart Children's Hospital.  The surgery is at Noon.  
They will be removing a small part of her skull, & vertebra.  Yes, I'm freaking out here.  They won't be replacing what they are removing.   They are hoping that this will drain the large Syrinx in her spinal cord.  We are hoping & praying this works.  If it doesn't they will have to do another procedure to get the syrinx down.  
The Chiari is measured at 7mm.  And the Syrinx is from C3 ~ T10.  It is very large.  
Keep Alexis in your prayers!  I can't imagine how she must feel.  Most adult's don't go through all that she is going through.  She is very brave and my hero!
