UPDATE - 8/22/09 - 9:45pm

Campbell was taken down for a post-operative CT Scan at 7:15 this evening. Her neurosurgeon was ecstatic with the results and told Greg & Robin that everything that she saw was exactly what she wanted to see... more GREAT news! There were no signs of excessive trauma following the surgery and all is as it should be.

Campbell is still sedated and will remain so for most of tomorrow. While she is running a fever (currently 102 degrees), the doctors have indicated that it is not unusual following brain surgery - a little Neuron temper tantrum if you will - and it should come down on its own over the coming hours.

Greg and Robin spent the day surrounded by friends and family and truly felt the power of your prayers. Caitlin and Caroline were able to go in and see their sister. Greg and Robin did a fantastic job of explaining the situation to them and answering whatever questions the girls had. While Campbell's road to recovery will be long, she gains strength from all of you and your prayers. Please continue to keep Campbell, Greg, Robin, Caitlin, and Caroline in your prayers in the coming days, weeks, and months. Thanks again for all of your support!
