Let’s band together to help make Amanda’s recovery as stress free as possible. As you know Amanda has a condition called Chiari Malformation and cysts on her spinal cord that are requiring a brain surgery on December 5th. Surgery will remove a section of her skull where her brain and spinal cord meet, and lift the brain off of her spinal cord relieving the pressure that's being put on it. She will be in hospital for a few days and then at home recovering for a few weeks. During recovery Amanda will be limited on what she is allowed to do and will need help with meals and basic things. Jason is also taking a few weeks off work to help so there will be limited income during this time. So anything will help.
