Molly got her shower today, and was discharged from the hospital and just stopped by Hey Clinic next door so I could check her X-Ray, and see her new posture.
She walked in on her own, standing up straight and tall.
Our height check here showed she was 5 ft 4.5” — an inch and a half taller than preop.
Her posture looks excellent, and her new X-Ray shows her kyphosis is in the normal range, with the hardware intact.
Molly and her mom Lysanne have been updating Molly’s Blog throughout her hospitalization at Duke Raleigh Hospital, with photos along the way. You can see it at :

Have a safe trip home, Molly and family!
