latest news

Bret is out of surgery and lounging in his hospital room. All went as expected during the operation! The doc said that he had a bunch of bone fragments pushing against his spinal cord which were most likely the main cause of his numbness. He was put in a soft collar instead of a hard one, so our hope is that he will be able to drive by the time my surgery rolls around next week.

I spent about an hour with him after he got to his room, but he's still really groggy so I'm home to catch a few zzzz's myself...it was a short night last night....and then I'll head back to the hospital later this afternoon. When I left he was dozing away and had convinced the nurse to get him some pepsi, so life was good. I've been ordered to bring more pepsi when I go back, so he's well on his way back to normal....lol....

I'll post more as time goes on!

thanks

jan
