Samantha had the second part of her DBS surgery yesterday where they implanted the battery boxes into her abdomen. We arrived at the Hospital at 6am and she was in surgery by 8am. A lot of people recognized her from the Gainesville Sun article and some asked her if she was the girl from the Lacrosse game. It was really cool and she felt like a famous person. The surgery lasted until sometime after noon. Samantha had a hard time coming out of her anesthesia and was emotional. We ended up leaving the hospital around 5pm and headed home. Samantha has a lot of pain but we expected that. She has a hard time moving her neck and her stomach hurts from the incisions there. She had six different incisions> four in her head to run the wires down to her stomach and then the twp om either side of her stomach. She has 19 staples in her head but the surgeon only shaved a little area on her head rather than her whole head. She was turned on yesterday and will recieve her first programming this coming Thursday. We appreciate all of the well wishes and emails.
