The time has come for surgery #11 for Isaiah - a complex spinal detethering in July.

As you all know, Isaiah was born with spina bifida which included a closure of an open lesion the day he was born. All spina bifida patients have tethered cord to some degree, but the concern comes when certain changes happen. Thankfully we have been able to wait this long. The doctor will go in and separate the spinal cord from the scar tissue. We may not see any function improvement, but it should help prevent him from losing any more function in the future.

The surgery itself will take about four hours, but recovery will take up to several weeks.

Due to the rest of our family still working and his father living so far away, we have made the collective decision that the best option for recovery and optimal results would be for me to take time off work to be able to assist Isaiah during this time.

The money donated to this cause will be used to pay for household bills, meals, travel expenses, and anything leftover will be put into savings for any future medical necessities.

Your donation is invaluable and even a share would help us out a lot.

If you have any questions or concerns about this cause, please feel free to message me directly and I will reply in a timely manner.

Thank you in advance!
