Annikah's Journey

Annikah Madisen had cranial surgery on October 2nd, 2006 at Kansas City Children's Medical Center. The surgery corrected a condition known as craniosynostosis.

Sunday, October 01, 2006

Last minute info...

Several have asked about the hospital where Annikah’s surgery will take place. We will be at Children’s Mercy Hospital (downtown) in Kansas City, Missouri.

Children's Mercy Hospital:
Tel.: 816-234-3000
2401 Gillham Rd,
Kansas City, MO 64108

Annikah’s surgery will start around 8:30AM on Monday, October 2nd and the procedure will last around four hours. She will then be in post-operative recovery for a couple of hours before being moved to the PICU (Pediatric Intensive Care Unit). She will stay in the PICU until Tuesday, sometime and will then be moved into a regular room. If all goes well, the surgeon hopes to release her from the hospital to recover at home by Thursday afternoon – possibly Friday.

Little Annikah, you have been in our prayers all morning. Praying especially the doctors will know the presence of the Lord is there during this operation and be aware of His guidance with each step. We have also been remembering your mom and dad and your brother and sister.
