If you are interested, here's video of a Chiari 1 Malformation surgery. I've seen the whole thing, Molly has seen much of it, and all of our kids have watched pieces (they especially like the part where they can see the brain. Pretty cool really.).
It's video of a live surgery, so it's not always easy to watch. Probably not best to watch before a lasagna dinner.
wow. i don't know how that guy can carry on a conversation while doing that! im praying for you guys.. Ryan, Brian, and myself are coming up with ideas to help you guys out somehow before or after the surgery. If you have anything in mind you would like us to help you with, please let us know.

Thanks man. I hope our doctor will talk less and focus more. :) I do hope to find time to hang soon.

Steve, I am very concerned about your doctors (pictured above). Don't let their metro-sexual looks fool you. I think it's fair to say that those men are a train wreck in every way and I believe they have done a number of illegal things. On top of that - they're plastic surgeons. I would go back to Chicago or Mayo.

Steve,
Just wanted to say that I am praying for your wife and family.
May God heal your wife, and may he sustain you and your family with grace.
