Cry Zoey Grace Update

Zoey is at the surgeons. Dr.Applewhite kept her there in case he could do the surgery tonight. If not,it will be in the morning. He said that she is in severe condition. He will fuse her neck with cement and put pins in it. If she makes it through surgery, he said she will live a normal life. There are several risks to the surgery including her weight, size, the pins could come loose and rupture the main blood vessel. It all sounds so scarry. But without the surgery he said she would die.
Zoey will be in a splint for 2-4 weeks, depending on her. Dr. Applewhite said he would keep us informed on how she is doing. I am going to call and check on her.
I will let all of you know what is going on as soon as I know anything. I wanted to stay there, but had family issues at home to take care of.
Keep us in your prayers.
