Miracle for Mia

In the early morning hours on Sunday March 21st 16 year old Amelia Mccullough was  injured in an automobile accident, where she sustained a broken back. Her injuries were near the T12 spinal nerve. Mia was Life Flighted to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital where she underwent surgery on Sunday morning around 10:45am. She spent 3 and 1/2 hours in surgery.  Amelia's injury caused her to be paralyzed from the waist down, however her surgery was successful and went according to the doctors plans she still has a long road ahead of her. The doctor is unsure at the time the severity of the damage to Mia's spinal cord. She needs days of rest and healing before he can give a more accurate prognosis. At this time the plan is for Mia to remain in ICU for two weeks and will then be transferred to Shepards's in Atlanta or Jacksonville. The last 36 hours have been an emotional roller coaster of shock for this precious family. The everyday worries and reality of this is so overwhelming. And it has been difficult to keep going with such heavy and broken hearts.
