Surgery? Again??

Yesterday was another check up with Gregg’s Doctor who did his operations. Gregg had to have x-rays done right before the appointment so that the Doc could see how he was doing. Because Gregg is much more mobile then he was last month, the x-ray technicians were able to get views of the breaks that we have not seen before. Gregg and I were shocked at what we saw! His breaks are way worse then I thought before! He has a huge part of the femur that is a “butterfly” piece that was just separated from the rest of the breaks. It was long and skinny. I could not get over how bad it was. No wonder he was in so much pain!!!
The x-rays shows that the bones are healing, except for one bone break seemed to be running behind. It is the long pointy part of the “bitterly” piece. It is probably not healing as fast because when Gregg was hit, the bone was ripped off of the muscle. The Muscle is what brings blood supply to the bone so that it can grow.
So we have an appointment for 6 weeks from now to take another look at the healing. If the bone does not catch up and show good healing the Doctor said that Gregg may have to have a bone graph. This is common for such a traumatic injury like Greggs.
Please be praying that Gregg’s muscles will reach the bone and that it grows faster. Another surgery would be a set back for Gregg. BUT praise God, We know that God is in control and we can rest in that!
