From Rinat, 9 am - It's All Positive

She is doing extremely well.

Juliet spent the night in a chair in her room so someone was with her. Her parents relieved her at around 5 a.m. this morning.

She is extremely alert and mentally sharp.

The doctors say she's doing great.

They are going to do an angiogram right now, which is standard to make sure the entire avm has been removed.

Her father "said she is doing as well as we could have hoped for."

She's a little uncomfortable as she is hooked up and wired up to a whole assortment of machines, but she's coping with it.

It's all positive.

She does however, need her sleep. I know a lot of people want to visit her, but her parents really insist that she needs to rest and make no effort at all. She will be home hopefully by the weekend where she'll have a longer recovery period and need the company more at that point, so their suggestion (and hers) is to hold off till she gets home.

Thanks for all your prayers and support. It's been overwhelming to read all the loving emails from everyone. I've forwarded them all to Andrea so she can feel the love and prayers directed towards her.
