A quick update from Atlanta - David’s surgery went well and he’s in recovery.
He now has four layers of sutures plus one on top keeping everything together. I think Dr Frankel was determined to make sure this time it sticks and nothing opens up again.
Our friend will be waiting for David when he returns to his room in Shepherd. Tomorrow, David will be able to resume his rehab, with healthy respect for the sutures on the back.

Thanks to all who sent such kind texts today!




Erika and David, This cartoon really made me think of you. Sending buckets of good wishes.
Ohhhh Erika! Sending good thoughts to your sweet family! I have no doubt you are putting your amazing advocacy skills to work as you navigate this new world! David is so lucky to have you by his side. Sounds like you are pretty lucky too. You are both amazing. Sending hugs!! ❤️
Some relief. May David now begin his rehab without distractions like infections. Blessings to you all.
Great news, love that he can get back to rehab so quickly!
