Jerry W. Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 My Grandson, Garrett Stewart will be 5 this Sunday. He is getting a CT Scan at this moment in preparation for surgery tomorrow. He has a shunt due to having hydrocephalus. The shunt will have to be branched and extended to a pocket of fluid in the back of his head. This pocket of fluid is close to his brain stem. Your prayers for the surgical team and Garrett would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry W. Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Garrett is out of surgery. Doc said all went well. He is now in the PICU and we can visit. He is awake but hurting. Thank you for the prayers and please keep them coming. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Parker Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Jerry, Although, I do not always respond to the requests on the board, I do say the prayers. My request last year took my father from death's door and gave us another year and counting. Dad was legally dead long enough that when he came back with stories of angels and heaven, the entire ICU hit their knees. I/we will keep Garrett on our prayer list update us often. Thanks Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry W. Posted March 24, 2012 Author Share Posted March 24, 2012 Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers. He is doing well and is set for a CT Scan in a couple of weeks. We are thinking the shunt will need some adjusting. Frosty, Jim, Katie & Slade are on their way north. They should end up in Haines for a while and plan to get back to Anchorage. Quite a drive from South Texas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
