Shandi Wagner & Dr. Michael Edwards, spinal cord tumor surgery, Lucile Packard Children's H

Shandi Wagner, 22, is a double-major graduate of the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN, Class of 2009. This is a remarkable achievement, especially since Shandi underwent surgery to remove a spinal cord tumor in 2008. Doctors in Minnesota referred Shandi to the pediatric neurosurgery program of Michael Edwards, MD, chief of pediatric neurosurgery at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford. In this June 18, 2009 video, Shandi, her mom Carol and Dr. Edwards discuss the surgery and recovery.
