Tomorrow is the day for Hannah's eye surgery. They have to be at the hospital at 9 in the morning, and the surgery is scheduled for 11:00. The surgeon says the entire procedure (including recovery) should be about 2 hours. Lori will call me as soon as she has met with the surgeon and has an update for us. Today Lori said that she is ready to come back to work. She said that once Hannah's eye heals then she is ready to return to school. I am sure she is ready to try and get back to some kind of normalcy. Supposedly, the trial will be in March, but I don't know any confirmed dates. Again, I ask for your prayers and pixie dust. This is a big day for them; we pray that when the blood clot is removed there will not be any signs of permanent damage. I will post updates when I hear from Lori. For those of you in the Atlanta area, I know that at least one local channel will be covering the story tomorrow. (Channel 2)

Edit to add: For those that aren't familar with the story of Hannah, here is a link to the original post. http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=982428
 
:grouphug: I will be keeping Hannah in my thoughts.
 
Hope all goes well! Update when you get a chance.

My DD's surgery is in a few more days if it doesn't heal by then.
 

:grouphug: forthe family andprayers for the hospital staff caring for her.

Thanks for keeping us updated. It will be interesting to following the trial too. It is so important the woman does not have an opportunity to do this to another child.
 
I will keep Hannah and her parents in my prayers.
 
Hugs, prayers, happy thoughts-you've got them! Not only to Hannah and her family, but to the hospital staff to treat her and do the best job they can...and to you and all others involved.
 
Hugs and prayers for little Hannah she has been through too much poor baby. :grouphug:
 
UPDATE...2/13/06

Lori called around 1:30. Hannah was out of surgery and did fine. Once the bloodclot was removed, the surgeon was able to look at the portion of the eye that he was most concerned about. As it appears now, there is NO damage to that part of the eye!!! :thumbsup2 The clot on the left eye is still dissolving. In fact, the bit of blood that is now left is so minimal that surgery on the left eye is very doubtful!! :woohoo: They will spend tonight in the hospital and will see the surgeon in the morning. Lori will call again after they have spoken with the surgeon and are on the way home. Thanks again for your prayers and good thoughts. It is amazing how powerful positive thinking, lots of prayers, and good thoughts can be.

I could cry that is such wonderful news. Who says miracles don't happen here on Earth. Continued prayers to Hannah, her family and friends.
