Jeff is OK and out of surgery. He is resting now and we won't know much until Monday when he is awake and further assessment can be made.
The shunt is in place and there are NO signs of permanent nerve damage to his arms and hands. Raise your hands in the AI-ER!
The doctor said shunts can be a little tricky because they can clog and/or move, but the surgery was as successful as could be and feelings are optimistic.
The glass is half full, people. Get some rest and send Jeff your thoughts and prayers.
Jan. 3, 2012, Jeff Adkins life changed when a car turned left in front of him while riding his motorcycle to work. He didn’t have time to stop and suffered a T3 spinal cord injury. He is paralyzed from his nipple line down and now requires a wheelchair to get around. He needs the support of his family/friends during this life changing transition. His blog helps communicate updates on how he is doing, as well as what others can do to help. Feel free to comment, sending your love and support.
This is wonderful news for Jeff, a man that loves to live his life to the fullest each day.
