The 6 o’clock report was about more progress and closing up the dura (membrane covering the brain) and then the skull bone. I’m very tired from all this ordeal and hoping to see Ella very soon. I’m worried about the last stages and post-op. So many things can go wrong. I just think we have to have faith and keep opitimistic. They will give us another report at 7 pm.
Also, they have called off the dermabrasion procedure. The nurse said they decided in the OR that Ella “has been through enough today”.
