I think we're firmly out of the "is he going to live" woods now. We've stepped into the "how normal will he be now" forest.
Herk slept nicely and had been off sedation for the last hour to check his responses (he is a slow riser - nothing new! He must be hitting the snooze button 30 times like at home!) He is getting some blood today because he is a little low and especially with surgery tonight they want to get his numbers in a better range. He has a mass/swollen part under his right arm so they are doing an X-ray now (maybe that's part of why that arm isn't moving well). Other than whatever it may take for the arm, just the facial fracture scheduled for tonight.Personally I think I would have done a full body x-ray after such a major wreck. Not finding the shoulder injury is a clear case of negligence where SiL deserves substantial financial compensation.
[H]e has a fractured humeral head (shoulder) and we are waiting for a consult from the orthopedic surgeon. Might explain why his right arm hasn't been moving well!
