Robert is under going surgery now. After the ct scan results Dr. Oxford and Dr. Potter have both decided that the best course of action is to remove the dead bone and implant a metal plate and not do the extensive surgery. I believe there is more deterioration than they first thought. They will consider going back in later to do the flap. With the procedure they are doing today, it is not necessary for a trach, unless they get in and can not get an airway, which means a shorter hospital stay. The surgery is to only last 3 hours. Thanks for all your texts and support.
Love,
Judy
