@melanieanderson462: We had a growth check on 12/5/23 that would just add to her story! As her face being crushed and her eyes sockets were also crushed as well. She had a pinky finger size CSF leak behind her left eye. when they went in to do the hormone check to see if we were growing, which we were not. They found the leak in her brain. So we got prepared for February! In February, we would have a craniotomy where we would find out that her Dura, which is supposed to be cardboard, Thickness was one ply, toilet paper, wet thickness, and it looked like Swiss cheese. The doctors were amazed that she did not have meningitis because of all the holes in her brain But this led us to stay in the hospital for an extra 14 days and to put a shunt in to her 🧠 brain heal her dura. #atv#atvaccidentsurvivors#Gkstrongr#christiantoka#braininjurysurvivori#tbii#tbisurvivorhu#shuntl#OnlyGodu#southernr#christamsr#duraf#csfleakf#csfleakwarrior
