Revision #2...Dr. Jones took another skin graft from the opposite side of his groin than the last time. Cut a little above his head to place skin in the site, moved skin over and added stitches to the concern area. We ALL pray this works and heals correctly. We will see Dr. Jones Monday to take a look at the ear. We will NOT be removing the stitches. We will go back Monday, January 3, to remove half the stitches (we think) and then we will return to take the others out a few days later. This could all change, but this is the plan for now.
Recovery...He is a trooper...
Recovery this time around wasn't so easy. Jansen got sick several times and even threw up on the way home. The nurses gave him a suppository before we left the hospital.
We stopped for dinner at The Varsity..but Jansen didn't eat. He wanted too, but didn't feel good.
He slept all the way home. Once we got home he felt better and ate his dinner. We all had a good nights rest and are ready for what today brings. Jansen is moving slow this morning, and has cried twice. Not sure what's going on, but tells me he feels fine. Thanks for all the prayers and please keep them coming. Chris, Jansen, and I need a good report over the next few weeks before we SCREAM!!

Huge hugs to all of you! Nick got sick until they figured out the right "cocktail" for him. They started using the patch behind the ear for nausea and I think that helped tremendously. As for the tears, I'm sure he's stressed about it all too...there were a few times that Nick and I cried together. Keeping all of you in my prayers.

Still praying!!! Sweet friend, you have all been thru a lot these past few weeks.......the tears are totally normal. Yours and his.
