Surgery

Kohlton's surgery began at 9:31am this morning.  They are hoping to perform two procedures.  The first procedure involves removing the fragments from the shattered vertebrae.  During the second procedure they will create a cage around the area of the damaged spinal cord and put in a titanium rod that will allow him to sit up once his body is better healed.  As we prayed this morning, we asked that the Lord would reveal a misdiagnosis of the original MRI...that some of the spinal cord might still be intact. 

Kohlton remains so positive.  A special thank you goes out to all of his friends who have come by the hospital, texted, and called him.  We believe that your prayer, support and encouragement are a huge contribution to his positive attitude.
