Thursday Update

Today Zachary his pain seems to be under better control. It has been difficult for him to get any real rest, but today he seemed to be a lot more comfortable and he said he was able to sleep last night for the first time.

He should be moved to the eleventh floor sometime today. This will be nice for him as visitors can come and go with more ease. He wanted me to let you know that he enjoys visiting with people.

It is hard to believe that it was two weeks ago today that we received that dreaded call asking if we were Zachary's parents and being told that he was in a serious car accident. Looking back at some of those events in the first 24 hours it is clear to us that the surgeons did not expect him to make it, we are extremely grateful that he has more here to do.

We have seen some pretty amazing things happen with Zachary's recovery. The most difficult part for the immediate future is his orthopedic repairs. We originally expected Zach to go in Friday for his next operation, but that likely will happen on Saturday or Sunday, since the surgery is going to be rather long and complicated, the orthopedist wanted to make sure that there was a good block of time set aside and it will most likely be his only operation that day.
