Lonnie is doing well. He has been giving his nurses a hard time. He really likes all his doctors. My cousin said he has some really good doctors. They will attempt to do a muscle flap graft and a skin graft tomorrow. The doctor told him that if the wound doesn't look like it will take due to it isn't healing well or it is too dirty they will just clean the wound and wait 2 days and try it again. Say a special prayer that all is well tomorrow, and it heals well. He keeps saying he hopes all goes well tomorrow. They told us he will be bed confined for 4-5 days after the graft to help ensure it heals well. The surgery will be at 730am tomorrow. He was told he had 3 broken ribs today. We had already suspected this due to he was having alot of pain when he coughed. The x ray confirmed this today. He really appreciates everyone checking on him. Ruth, he appreciates the gift basket but now he is concerned he will get fat. Tell Kaiden, Lonnie will be getting a new excavator for him to ride in. We were told tonight that the Greyrock driver who went into his lane had been driving only 3 days for them. My understanding was he was young. Lonnie is DICTATING ORDERS,so he is better. Lonnie said to tell everyone it was a large gravel dump truck, and he was driving 55 miles/ hr , we think the other driver may have been going a little faster. Ok, wish him well and pray for the best.
