Another Surgery for Trinity

Today Trinity had a appointment to see the Neurosurgeon, Dr. Gilmer-Hill. Over the past couple of days Trinity's incision on her back has not looked very good and almost like there was an area that the skin did not attach to each other like it should. The doctor looked at it today and said that she would have to go back in and reconnect it. This would require her to scrape off the old skin and then reattach the new skin together. They will have to put her under again and she would be in the hospital at least for one night, if not more. This was really not the kind of news that we wanted to get. Just when things were starting to look up for us something like this happens. The surgery will be next Wednesday. Trinity is still urinating on her own and we are doing the catheter about once a day. We have a Home Health Nurse that comes once a week to check on Trintiy. She weighs about 8lbs and has no problem eating!!! We will keep you posted on how things are going and if there are any changes in the day of the surgery.
