The doctor said that the fractured vertibrae are in the correct alignment for healing. The c1 and c2 breaks seem to be okay, but there's no telling yet if they will knit properly. If they don't, they'll have to fuse them. The doctor gave him clearance to come BACK TO WORK perhaps as early as next week! Is our God not amazing our what?!
