Quick update: He had surgery late this afternoon on his neck and the surgeon was happy with how it turned out. The next step is the Theocratic portion that's damaged. That surgery will be a little more tricky. Don't know when it'll happen yet. On a positive note, the spinal cord appears to be intact so paralysis shouldn't be an issue thus far. The Post Surgical CT Scan of the heart showed to be normal. The Doc's are very happy so far with what he's been through.
Keep the prayers rolling in!
