Christmas 2010 brought several setbacks for Kara. She experienced five lacerations on the cornea of her left eye, multiple dislocations of her right patella, and a dislocation of her left hip. Kara is currently unable to walk, and has been confined to her home. On April 5, 2011 Kara underwent surgery to reset her left hip at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford, in Palo Alto, CA. After discharge, Kara will have to wear a body cast for approximately two months.

This is her journey.

And yet again we wait

Kara's placement is still not confirmed, so she has not been discharged.  IF everything is approved, she will likely be transferred tomorrow or Friday.  If not, she will come home.  Once at home, Kara will officially be ineligible for any skilled nursing or home nursing in the future.

We have a broken system.
