Angela Hammonds Angels for Angela

Angela suffered a major stroke right before being put under anesthesia for a blood clot removal procedure. Due to the timing of the stroke, and her already having been put under the anesthesia, the doctors were not able to tell until almost 5 hours later.  The decision was made by the family to go ahead with a decompressive craniectomy procedure to remove part of Angela’s skull so that her brain has room to swell, and has upped her chances of survival. She is being kept slightly sedated in order for her brain to be able to heal, currently.
