Surgery Update

Susan just called with an update:

The surgery is still ongoing but so far all news is good. Her blood pressure is great and they are now working on getting the bone from her hip for the grafts in her teeth.

They are removing a lot of plates and screws which we hope will result in less pain for Shea.

They have raised her left eye a full centimeter and have injected her own blood and stem cells into the bone of the upper jaw to speed healing. They still don't know whether they are going to break her lower jaw, since they don't want to affect her singing.

Dr. Mills came out and said that Shea has the absolute very best doctors in the world for this surgery. He stated that if he was in an accident, these would be the doctors he would hope for.
