Tuesday April 1, 2008

Stephany had surgery on her arm and leg yesterday. The surgery lasted about 7 hours, but the doctors said everything went really well. They found out that she does have nerve damage in her arm. They will not know to what extent though for a few months. She has a clenched fist. They will be opening her fist up in the next day or two and will wrap her fingers around something so that they do not stay permanently clenched.

Broady is in a great deal of pain. They took him off of morphine yesterday, but will probably be putting him back on it. He will also be having surgery to repair his shattered heel. This is very good news because it means that the doctors are very optimistic about his chances of walking.

Cody is not going to require any surgery. The doctors are going to be able to set his jaw using rubberbands place on his braces. He is still sore, but should be feeling better very soon.

Once again, they are still not accepting visitors. Some people have tried to go, but because they are in ICU, even if you show up you will not get to see them. We will let you know when they are put in regular rooms.

They are happy to recieve your emails and ecards! Please keep sending the messages to stephany.broady@yahoo.com
