Post by Paul Bogenrief: Melissa had a Baclofen medication pump surgically installed on Tuesday, September 25. On Sunday, October 7 the area where the surgery occurred started bleeding and swelling. Melissa was taken by her family to St. Joseph hospital for emergency treatment. Though the stitched up the area and discharged her, the bleeding continued and she began to show bruising. On Tuesday, October 9 she was admitted to CHOC and Dr. William Loudon will likely be performing additional surgery, opening up the area and cleaning it out. As of now, Melissa is currently in the hospital for observation. The family asks that you please keep her in your prayers.
