Surgery Begins

He went back to surgery about 9:30. Reconstruction is not an option so the surgery is an amputation, probably at the upper thigh. Should take 1 to 1.5 hours according to Dr. Montgomery.  Chest surgery could be as  early as next week. They are giving him a block at the top of the thigh to help with post-op and phantom pain. Dr . Montgomery said he didn't think he would have a prosthetic in time to walk Terah down the isle at her wedding. No dry eyes at that point. I will update when he is out of surgery.  Thanks guys!!
