Day 2. Operation day

Owen is into surgery and 2 screws are put into his femur to strengthen the bone and prevent further damage.

His surgery went off without a hitch and 75 minutes later he was in his room. He was emotional but that was expected . The DMD did not cause any trouble with anaesthetic and everyone was very grateful. And in came the get well wishes...

Owen loved those

He was unable to bear weight so he became a 2 person lift . His mom taught the nurses how he liked being lifted even though they weren't happy about not using a transfer belt.

And that eve we got roommate #2.
