Kathy is out of surgery and it went well. They opened the incision once again, cleaned everything out, removed more bone, put in a drain and closed her up. Dr. Kim and Dr. Chi worked together this time. She will be at Barnes until cultures are back and they determine if she will have iv antibiotics at home. They won’t do further surgery for at least 1.5 months to put in a plate or a more extensive surgery would be a tissue transplant which decisions will be made after next mri in december. She has a headache and is mostly out of it today but hopefully she sleeps peacefully. Thanks for all the prayers. Cher
