Hello everyone! Michelle here - I just spoke with Art and he wanted me to post another update for Dara - our mighty and strong fighter! She had another really rough night last night. Her doctor looked at her CT from yesterday and said that he was pleased with the results because it looks like 90% of the area is drained and now the area/hole can begin to heal. Her white blood count is not as high and it seems the CSF level is down. The CSF is still being drained through the tube in her spine. But, it still looks like she may have meningitis. She may be going home with a pump inserted in her that will pump antibiotics for 3 weeks. (Hey, maybe she can leave it in and pump margaritas through it??) The cultures on the meningitis are still growing, but we have faith and pray it has stopped in her body. They may still have to insert a shunt in her head with a tube going to her intestines. As of now, she won't be going home until Monday.
Art - thank you for being by her side and for all of the updates!! You are a perfect match for Dara! We appreciate all of your love and energy and attention on Dara!
Much love and hugs and kisses to Cousin Misty and Gramma and Grandpa Freed! Thank you for holding down the Freed Fort and Dara's family is so grateful for your love and kindness towards Dara. We have always appreciated how you have accepted her as a true daughter of your own.
Shane - Art really appreciates all you are doing for his studio. Thank you for keeping the ball rolling while he is away!
Personally, I stand amazed at the wonderful friends she has made on her street! I always hear how yall are taking Maddie to school, having the kids over to play and giving her rides. Julie and I have so much comfort from the love and support yall have shown our sister. We so wish we lived closer so we could help, but we count you as a blessing that you are her neighbor. A big hug and kiss from Texas and Colorado!
Dara, this will all be a distant memory one day with a great story to inspire others. Phil 4:13 says "For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength" and that even means a FULL RECOVERY! We love you so much! Your family!

Got cha beat there! :o) Sounds like you have SUPER support group, but I would love to chat w/ you when you are feeling better. I have had LOTS of complications, but my life is full & GREAT!

Dear family and extended family.
Thank you to all who are caring for my goddaughter and neice. Yep, she's both to me and I am so very proud of her. Hang in there sweetie. I vote yes to the margarita pump, but Appletinis would be a close second. I love you and God Bless.
Dara darlin,
Miss you soooo much, get better and hurry home to us.
The Kido's are doing great.
We are so proud of you and Art, this "Super
bump" in the road will pass and befoe you know it, we will all be together at Big Bear, playing Scrabble and toasting your recovery with those wicked Margerita's.
Love, Ma J.
PS No fair taking any Smart injections while our backs are turned, you already beat the pants and bras off of us already!!!
I also had a 4cm acoustic neuroma and ended up with spinal meningitis. You WILL get through this. I had this in2001 and when I look back now it all just seems like a bad dream! Email me if you ever want to chat. I still have one good ear:) stacy.James@verizon.net
Hi Dara: I am a first cousin to Judy and Kenny. We share a common set of grandparents and our parents were brother and sister.
I spoke with Judy/Syl this morning and they told me of your situation. Keep up the fight. Life is definitely worth living.
Many years ago I also walked around with an infusion pump. I cannot remember the illness but I remember the pump. What a pain. Your friend who suggested substituting margarita's for medicine had a great idea. Problem is what do you do about the salt?
Have a great day, and do not hesitate to call upon me if I or my family can be of any assistance.
