On the Fence

Henry said (yes you read that correctly) that it felt "Like he was riding a fence" this morning.

All is good the pelvis is completely finished!!!!! Henry was able to speak to Bonnie and Barb on the phone this morning, the nurse held the phone to his ear. The talk is that next week they would like to start repairing his crushed elbow and begin the long and painful skin grafts on his leg.

Henry still has alot of surgeries and things to go through but with each one we are closer to getting him walking talking(more) and home.

Surgery went well

Prayers are definitely working! Henry's surgery went well. We received a text from Bonnie around 1am and the Dr had just came out to talk to Her and Barb. It sounds like the pelvis is done yeah. They pinned and plated the back part of the pelvis which is permanent and the plan is to still leave the temporary pins and bar on the front on to heal. Not alot of detail yet but wanted to ensure everyone that the surgery was successful.

The elbow will be a different day and surgery. And lots more prayers and support!
