Update: 4/25/13: More Surgery needed. My son is exhausted but the Dr from Georgetown U Hospital said that once he goes in he will be able to tell what path he will take to repair the nerves around the missing calf that is giving Tyler so much pain down the leg and thru the ankle/foot.I am out of words for the moment.

Update May 14th 2013
Update: May 14th 2013- Tyler is making the decision to have the next surgery as soon as possible. He is using his head instead of his heart which is good news to my wife and I. He needed some time to come to this decision and it needed to be his decision.

I have a good feeling about this Mike. We will all continue to pray and think about Tyler during this most difficult time.
