Just a quick update: The lumbar puncture is complete (still awaiting results) and she did pretty well coming out of anesthesia. For dinner she insisted on saltines, catchup, croutons, and Parmesan cheese (from the can). Go figure.
The whole family carpooled today to take Bruno to school and then Gianni to the hospital - her and dad are now comfortably (as can be) installed at PEC. She walked right up to the 2nd floor like she owned the place, jumped up on the bed and started telling her favorite nurse, Ryan, exactly how to do his job. She is amazing, and even after all this, continues to run the show.
