OMG!! the pictures of of Jamie Hilton’s extraordinary life-saving brain surgery with a quarter of her skull ‘living’ in her stomach .is extraordinary.
The former American beauty queen is back at home after surgeons successfully stapled the bone to her head.
'My heart feels like it could explode with GRATITUDE,’ she wrote on her blog.
‘My cup is running over with joy and happiness. Is everything in my life perfect? No. But today I AM ALIVE!’
The 36-year-old’s brush with death came after she stumbled and hit her head on a fishing trip with her husband, Nick, to Hell’s Canyon in Idaho in June.
She was taken unconscious to hospital in Boise where doctors found her brain had swollen.
They decided to remove a quarter of her skull to ease the swelling and put it inside her stomach to keep it sterile and nourished.
When the mother of three, a former Mrs Idaho, woke from the operation she found a lump in her stomach and a large portion of her head missing. Mrs Hilton posted a photo of the skull in her abdomen on her blog entitled ‘Miracles... believe in them’ as well as a photo showing a scar running the length of her head.
