We just received an update on Dimelia from her host Mom, Lori Hodell:

“Dimilia had an appointment at Shriners Hospital yesterday to have her stents taken down. She did great even though it was somewhat painful. The doctor was so pleased with how well the graft took. He said it couldn’t look better. Her Care Coordinator was at the appointment too. They discussed what they will do next. The surgeon wants to do some work on the left breast area and a tight band in the middle of her neck. We also noticed that when she lies flat, there is a band on both sides from her sternum to her shoulder. Additionally, they want to do a lot of laser work. Taya, her Care Coordinator, will meet with their scheduler in the next week to provide us with a schedule for these procedures. Dimilia’s next appointment at Shriners Hospital is on August 10th. I will keep you in the loop!”

We want to thank Lori Hodell for her kind and compassionate care of our sweet Dimelia during her surgical procedures at Shriners Hospital in the States. Bobby and Sherry
