Hi Everyone,
Joe's white blood cell
count is over the magic 2.0 figure today (2.1 to be exact) so it
looks like we will try the surgery again tomorrow. I think they
will check his blood again tomorrow morning just to be sure so
we're not definite by any means but hopefully he will at least
maintain his level.
Surgery is scheduled for 9am and is expected to last 3-4 hours.
One other thing I think I told some of you but not everyone.
Yesterday Dr. McGrath said he had a chance to study Joe's MRI
closely and decided he could leave the peroneal nerve alone. If
the peroneal nerve did have to be removed Joe would end up with
a drop foot which isn't the end of the world (considering
everything else going on) but at least that is one less thing
Joe will have to deal with.
Tom
