Hello people. Hannah will have surgery after Easter. Dr. Scott of Children's in Boston said he is going to do only one side as there is good blood flow on the other. I know he usually does both sides when he operates. We will push for the other side, as I believe 99% of people will need the other side done. Hannah is a great little girl, and she is worried about missing her mom's birthday as it is next to the operation date. We will have the birthday in Boston if we have to. She will have to be admitted the day before and put on IV's to get her ready for surgury. Talk to you soon. Also a piece of advice push for what your gut tells you. We pushed, and found she had moyamoya. If we didn't push who knows what would have happened. God bless all of you. Also has anyone ever had any complications with the surgery?????? This is really my question.......
