We shared Kaisa’s story when she had her Chiari Decompression just 2 years ago & I was so happy to see her beautiful smile & read her encouraging testimony pop up on Instagram as she recently celebrated her 2 year zipperversary. She has been generous to give us permission to share this good report with you all. Thank you @chronic_lee for being such a voice of hope to our community. May you continue to go from strength to strength.

“Today is my 2 year Chiari brain surgery #zipperversary! 🧠 Although I still have some big hurdles in this crazy health journey, I’m so grateful for life 2.0 thanks to God and a specialized, compassionate, incredibly talented Rhode Island neurosurgeon (and a whole lot of research)! 

Swipe to see my zipper scar today compared with surgery day (for those who can stomach that sort of thing). 😜

I walked back to the surgery room that night (surgery was pushed to 8pm) by myself totally at peace thanks to my trust in the Lord and Dr K as well as the MANY prayers carrying me. The faith of so many combined with my own COMPLETELY drowned out the fear…it was incredible to experience. 🙏🏻💜 

While I will ALWAYS have symptoms from this congenital disorder, I’m grateful for the relief I have gained. It took 15 months for me to heal and feel the effects but it was worth it! Every little of progress towards getting my body back is worth celebrating. 🙏🏻🎉
