Monday- Post Surgery Update

Jamie's surgery went well. They repaired his right femur with a titanium rod that is actually load-bearing, so no cast or brace. If he didn't have any other injuries, he could technically walk on that leg. The Doctors decided not to do the knee at this time. They were able to examine it while Jamie was under anesthesia and decided not to surgically repair it now but he could opt to have elective surgery in the future.

So he'll be in icu for another couple of days while we hope he continues to surprise us with his progress!

We'll keep you posted and thanks again for your continued prayers!

Happy Birthday Jamie! Do you have a lemur on your femur?? No, it's a
titanium rod! What a terrific birthday present. We love you and hope to see you when you are in a regular room and are up for company.
Best wishes,

I'm so happy Jamie did well in surgery. It is truly a small world. Jamie was talking to a friend of my daughter's best friend when the accident happened.I hope that made sense. We are all still praying for him. Carolyn Baucom
