Since being diagnosed with Chiari, my daughter Lisa Henry Cote has had three brain surgeries. She is scheduled for another one in May. It is called Trigeminal Nerve Decompression and put simply, they will drill a hole to access 3 nerves which are basically banging on an artery.  The surgeon will try to cushion these nerves with Teflon and eliminate some of the extreme daily pain she suffers. It will be in Long Island NY and require approximately a seven day stay . I am trying to raise some monies to help them with the expenses of room and board and essentials while having to be away from home. They have 3 children who will remain at home.  Any small amount will help.  Thank you in advance,  Laura Henry
