This is Anna Marie Dingess's blog about her fight with Pseudotumor Cerebri. Pseudotumor is so rare in children that she is the 42nd child in the United States diagnosed with this disease.

Anna surgery was faster than expected. She has a infection in her stomach and in her CSF fluid. They externalized her shunt, to the outside of her stomach until we can get this infection all cleared up. Dr Kosnik asked Infectious Disease to get involved to find out what kind of infection this is. As it stands they are saying she has a form of meningitis's, we will know more on Friday what kind and what we have to do about them. They started her on 2 different antibiotics to start clearing up the meds. Once we have this infection cleared up we will then go back in and put her shunt back inside of her. Prayer concerns: Anna to stay strong & Care of Alexandria & Austin while Mark is working. And that the Dr's can figure out everything that's going on inside of Anna Marie. We love you all and are blessed for all of your Friendships. Have a Happy Thanksgiving :)

This comment is from Karrie Herzog (Levi's friend). I wanted to encourage you with these Words about our Saviour from Isaiah:
"Surely He has borne our griefs(sicknesses, weaknesses and distresses)and carried our sorrows...and with the stripes that wounded Him we are healed and made whole." His stripes purchased Anna's healing and I have been praying constantly for 3 weeks that her healing would come quickly. You don't know me but God has put your precious daughter on my heart and I will not stop pleading on her behalf! May you all experience His rich and abundant grace today.
