Hello All. We are happy to report that we just left J sleeping peacefully. The surgeries went well. The bones in his hip were set and are now in place. The surgeon said that they may heal and they may not. We just won't know for 2-3 months. His hand is set and is now in a cast.
The plan for tomorrow is to begin working on getting his lungs clear. They are going to do percussion therapy to break things up and get them out of his chest. This is actually done with the bed. I'm not quite sure how it works, so I am looking forward to seeing it. I would love to think that he is going to be off the vent by this time tomorrow, but if I have learned anything from this experience, it is to be patient. Things will happen when they need to. So on that note, I will say "Good night" and rest up for whatever tomorrow brings.
Love,
Cara

Good Friday morning. I know it's been a LONG week for you all. So glad the surgery went well! I'll be praying that the bones respond well and heal now that they're set. Love-EP
Woohoo! That is such great news! I'm sure Jerry will be off the vent and talking to you very soon. Thanks so much for the blog - all of us Tyson folks are watching it constantly for updates.
