TEAM KENNY UPDATE!!!
We had stitches out on Monday - and that hurt; especially when they rubbed alcohol across the open wound! We changed blood pressure medications, and hopefully that will help with the crazy ups and downs.
Tuesday, we saw the Neurosurgeon who gave us a really good report. He showed us the latest pictures and explained to us what was happening. The top pic shows the bottom of his brain and brain stem. (Side view) The highlighted white areas show the damage to the ligaments in his neck. He has to remain in his neck brace until 2/20 - his next follow up appointment. But the end is in sight! Hopefully he can return to normal light duties at that time.
The bottom pic is a top view of his brain. There are two small white dots - one at the front of his brain and one at the back - this shows that the brain bleed is being absorbed, as it's supposed to. The white dots are the bruising from where his brain hit the front of his skull, then slammed against the back of his skull.
Kenny said this is what happens when you chase a parked car! He said he thinks he'll stick to horses from now on. Hotrod never would have let him run into the back of parked truck!
Thank you again, for all the prayers, texts and calls. It means a lot.
