He had a tracheotomy today to prepare for the surgery he will be undergoing tomorrow. He broke multiple bones in his face and they will be reconstructing it tomorrow.. So we need some prayers to help him through surgery tomorrow..
The doctor also mentioned to my daughter that they don't feel John will have any major brain trauma.. which to me says he should recognize her when he wakes up fully..
She was a bit more positive also since he was squeezing her hand most of yesterday when she was by his bedside..
So your prayers are helping.. but, we need more.. Thankyou!

ScarletRose: John has an infection on his forehead.. so they postphoned the surgery..
My daughter is getting stronger day by day.. she is more positive which is great.. she needs to be strong to get through these months ahead.. Oh.. she mentioned that he still has his teeth.. and they still look really great.. She had worn braces and so she notices that stuff.. imagine that.. his teeth lasted through it.. LOL

Pedro Martínez: Not sure about the other peeps involved.. although, from the sound of it.. I don't think any of them were injured.. I could be wrong.. will have to ask.
He has been rubbing my daughters arm and even playfully patted her thigh .. he opened his eyes up a bit yesterday. So my daughter believes he is awake.. I told her.. it sounded as though his face and especially his eyes were too swollen to really open before.. she is really sounding much better this week. This is where I wish I didn't have to live so far away.. she is much more positive..
They still haven't done surgery on his face.. he is running a fever.. the nurse told her. They won't do the surgery till he goes two days in a row without fever or infection..
I think things are going to be A okay for them.. I believe this was to make the couple stronger in their relationship.. Thanks for those prayers.. and I will let you know if anyone else was hurt..

Foxy Lady: he broke his fever.. and they were able to reconstruct his chin.. he is still comatosed.. and I am sure they only put him under for so long due to that.. my daughter for the most part is holding out.. although, she sounds as though she could a great big hug.. She lives in Dallas.. TX.. I know there would have to be some sort of support groups similar to what she is going through.. I have told her to start reading scripture again.. and to take a bubble bath.. or do a facial masque for herself.. I told her she shouldn't feel badly for taking time out for herself.. even renting some comedy's and popping popcorn one night.. I hope she can find a group she can be part of .. she beats herself up so badly.. I most likely will be visiting her after I am a bit more stable.. I went through my surgery.. and am recovering just fine.. just want to keep sending prayers out for Bree and John.. Thanks..
ScarletRose: John had his chin and jaw.. (the lower part of his face down last week.. they have wired his jaw shut.. and on Saturday his face was reconstructed.. my daughter said they sedated John since they need to keep his eyes taped closed..
She mentioned hearing several of the surgeons express how it is a miracle he is alive .. bree said now just for him to finish healing and then they start therapy..
This morning huge tornado wiped out 3 counties. Homes, business and mobil home parks. There were 14 killed. The destuction is unbelievable. Looks like a hurricane. We are safe here I am father south. Please keep these people without homes and shelter in your thoughts and prayers. God Bless BARB
He saw the Dr. His cancer is treatable. He has to see the Dr. that sent him to this specialist. He has to have one more shot before the treatment.They will put in over 40 radiation seed things.. I forgot what it is called. :( Quite new. This they will do in Mid- March. Jon is still running everyday. Ran a 6 miles race yesterday at Naples, Fl. Did quite well, but of course he thought he could have done better. The runners talk, I think. LOL Jon is taking everything very good at this point. Thanks for the prayers and thoughts. Please continue to keep Jon and our family in your prayers and thoughts. Thank you
Thanks to you all! The surgery went well and I am doing fine because of your thoughts and prayers! That laser surgery is amazing, only takes a few minutes and you come home with no restrictions..can't beat that! It was to correct glaucome so I was anxious to have it done. Now will get the other eye done on the 27th! Then will have a lid lift..wooooo hooooo!!
