Day 120 -- Surgery Results

-
Tuesday 28 July 2009

The surgery to remove the stent from Daniel's liver went forward as planned yesterday. The doctors determined the infection in Daniel's throat was not mono or strep, but rather pockets of puss from cold sores (hope you aren't eating breakfast while reading this) and did not present a significant risk of infection during the surgery.

The stent in Daniel's liver was removed successfully and he was feeling good after coming out of recovery. The next surgery will be to remove the hardware in Daniel's arm. This will happen in a couple of weeks.

  1. I have not actually meet Daniel but I know his mom and dad. He is a remarkable young man and I am excited to meet him hopefully at his wedding reception!
