Joe is doing great. He has been sleeping quite a bit the last 2 days which is good. His neck has been sore with all the staples. They cut through the muscles in his neck so it will be sore for a while. The swelling has not gone down enough to see if you will be able to notice that there is missing tissue in his neck. His staples will come out on Monday and then just recovery from there. We are not sure what the follow-up schedule will be but should find out on Monday. We are grateful to God that he put all the people in our lives to guide us to the best doctors. We could not have gotten through any of this without God, our church family, family and friends by our sides the whole time. The last five months seem like years to me and I am glad they are behind us.

God Bless,
Crystal
