Anna Has Successful Surgery

It's been almost exactly a year since Anna had her major surgery; the surgery that changed her life.  This week she had to have surgery to remove a calcium stone from her bladder.  It was successful, and she only had to spend one night in the hospital.  Dr. Grady and his team at Seattle Children's Hospital did a great job again.

Anna will have two urine bags strapped to her legs for a week or so, and then she will be able go about her life as before.  She's feeling a bit of discomfort but has been a real trooper during this ordeal.  Her sister Lily has been helpful in keeping her spirits up since she got home.  These two girls have a joyful bond that is amazing to behold.
