Gia's Courage: 10 Surgeries in 75 Days
10 Dec
Summary
- Gia underwent her tenth major surgery in 75 days.
- The family has been separated since late September.
- Hospital staff were inspired by the family's joy.
The Putman family is navigating an incredibly difficult period, marked by Gia's extensive medical battles over the past three months. As of December 9, Gia had already undergone her tenth major surgery in the preceding 75 days. The family's unity has been tested, as they have been physically separated for much of this time, not having been fully together since late September.
Despite these immense struggles, the family's spirit has shone brightly, particularly following Gia's successful craniotomy on September 27. In the brief recovery periods, even amidst the intensive care unit environment, hospital staff from doctors to nurses and cleaning personnel were drawn to the Putmans. They visited not only to see Gia's progress but also to witness the palpable joy and faith emanating from the family.
This demonstrated joy, attributed by the family to a higher power, created a powerful atmosphere that resonated deeply with the hospital community. The Putmans' ability to maintain such a positive outlook and share it with others, even during their most challenging times, has become a source of inspiration and a reminder of the strength found in faith and family.
