** UPDATE ON NIKKI **
Nikki is continuing to progress in the right direction and is making great strides with her physical therapist each day! Nikki will continue to have routine scans so Dr. Sekula can monitor Nikki's amazing progress.
As a group, we spent some time with Nikki last weekend and there wasn't a dry eye in the house from being emotional and just grateful to see our girl - to tears from all the laughs! I can speak for all of us by saying it felt amazing to all be back together again and we can't wait for the day it's at Salon Brielle.
Nikki read each and every message you all have written, sent and or had us relay. Nikki is overwhelmed with the love and support and cannot thank you all enough for your continued support.
We will continue to update!
XO,
Monique and the Salon Brielle Team

*** πUPDATE ON NIKKIπ ***
Nikki is a warrior!! We are overjoyed and amazed at how our girl is progressing and healing! Nikkiβs surgeons, nurses and all the staff at NY Presbyterian continue to blow us away with just how attentive and committed they are to Nikkiβs entire journey. We received news that the surgeons created almost another hairline part instead of having to shave most of her hair off! Great news!
We have set up a meal train to help alleviate some of the stress off of the Stile family who have not left Nikkiβs side since the start. If youβre having trouble navigating the site or have any questions please call (631)585-1045 and ask for Andrea!
We have shared every message with Nikki and her family to let them know we, as a community are with them every step of the way and just how loved Nikki is. Thank you to everyone who has reached out and kept our girl in your thoughts!

You are so brave and so strong Nikkiπ
Now we recover and healβ€οΈ
Thank you everyone for all your thoughts, prayers, love and messagesπ
As Nikki said right before her surgery, βYou better say, βI love you,β and hold the ones you love tight, and never let go, βcause ya never know.β π

β We are family, I got all my sisters and meβ
The times that weβve all repeated those lyrics over and over in our head. Thereβs no more relevant time than the NOW.
As a salon family we, as they say, βhave been through it all.β
But as all of you know, WE truly have been through it all. Weβve been so blessed to go through it together and with the support of all of you.
βYou are OUR family, all our sisters and me.β
Weβve all said at times, βlife is short, ya never know.β
Right now we are in the βya never know.β
Our Nikki, that first beautiful face you see when you walk in the salon, that smile that lights up when she sees you, with those baby blues, needs all of our love and prayers right now.
On Friday, Nikki went to the hospital with symptoms of blurry vision, an odd smell and head pain. Something, that over the past few months has occurred. She knew that these βepisodesβ werenβt just going away. She called her Dad, Big Joe :) and of course, without hesitation, he picked her up and went straight to the ER.
Tests were run, ct scan and mri. Around 3am they received news that she has a tumor on her brain that needs to be removed. The symptoms she was having were classic of a seizure. Nikki, being very in tune with what was going on and keeping notes, βit was the best thing you could have done,βthe Dr. told her.
To receive the best care, the decision was made to transfer Nikki to NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.
Itβs important to Nikki that you all know that she appreciates all the love and prayers being sent her way. And more importantly she wants us all to βlove a little deeper, laugh a little louder, and hold the ones you love a little tighterβ
because βya never knowβ β€οΈ
Please hold Nikki tight in your heart and prayers.
All our love,
Monique & all the Salon Brielle familyπ
