July 15th, surgery

Joe had surgery this morning and the doctor felt like it went well.  He had to have his lungs worked on again and drain off all the fluid around his lungs.  He had some pockets of blood that were happy to escape from his body, that were causing him pain.  He was not thrilled when he came out of surgery to find all the tubes coming out of him once again. He already has started getting them out. Everyone feels that with good behavior and his body reacting well he will continue getting them out.

He still needs to be flat for his back.  He has another two weeks for his back to heal then they will reassess his back and make decisions at that point. Tomorrow will mark 4 weeks since the accident.
